PAN-FRIED TROUT WITH ROSEMARY, LEMON AND CAPERS
This 1994 recipe gets Provencal flavors on the table in minutes. Fresh rosemary needles are pressed into the fillets, which are seasoned in flour and pan fried for a crisp exterior and flaky inside. A sauce built on shallots, white wine and lemon adds complexity. Pair it with a light vegetable like sautéed asparagus, or a bright arugula salad, and serve with some of that white wine for an easy, refreshing spring dinner.

Steps:
- Press 1/2 teaspoon of the rosemary needles into the flesh of each trout fillet. Combine the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Coat the fillets in the seasoned flour.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the trout and saute until cooked through, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the trout from the pan and place on warmed plates. Add the shallots to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, for 15 seconds.
- Pour in the wine and reduce to 1/3 cup, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, capers and remaining teaspoon rosemary and remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place 1 trout fillet on each of 4 plates, spoon the sauce over the trout and serve immediately.

TROUT WITH FRESH LEMON CAPER SAUCE
Using fresh lemons for the lemon juice and lemon zest will truly increase the fresh citrusy taste of the lemon-caper sauce.

Steps:
- 1. Using a sharp knife, score 2 slits crosswise (about 1/4" deep and about 1 inch apart) into each trout fillet. Turn fillets over and season with salt and white pepper.
- 2. Heat 1/2 Tbsp butter and all the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place fillets in skillet, skin side up, and sauté about 3 minutes or until browned. Turn the fillets and sauté another 2 minutes and the skin just starts to become crisp at the edges. Transfer cooked fillets to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
- 3. Stir lemon juice into the skillet. Add the parsley, capers, lemon segments and lemon zest, and stir well until lemon chunks are heated through. Spoon the lemon-caper sauce over each fillet, and serve immediately while still hot.
TROUT WITH LEMON, CAPERS, ROSEMARY AND ANCHOVIES
Delicious, quick, easy and healthy! This would work for a dinner party or for every day and needs minimal preparation time and looking after. The sharpness of the lemon seems to complement the saltiness of the capers and anchovies well.
