Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless trout fillets (1 pound total), patted dry
Salt and pepper
3/4 cup fine cornmeal
3/4 cup full-fat plain yogurt, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 lemon, 1/2 juiced and 1/2 cut into wedges
1/3 cup roughly chopped fresh dill, divided
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
1 bunch radishes, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Season fish with salt and pepper. Place cornmeal in a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Spread 1 tablespoon yogurt on flesh side of each fillet. Press yogurt side of fillets into cornmeal to coat.
  • In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add 2 fillets to pan, skin side down, and cook until skin is crisp and golden, about 3 minutes; flip and cook until golden brown, 3 minutes more. Transfer fish to paper towels to drain, wipe pan clean, and repeat with remaining oil and fish, reducing heat if necessary.
  • Combine lemon juice, 1/4 cup dill, and remaining 1/2 cup yogurt. Combine cucumber, radishes, and remaining dill. Season dressing and salad with salt and pepper. Serve alongside fish with lemon wedges.
