Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pound(s) trouts (4 small or 2 large)
8 ounce(s) riesling (dry white wine)
1 cup(s) creme fraiche
4 tablespoon(s) unsalted butter
1/2 bunch(es) flat leaf parsley
3 shallots, minced
1 pinch(es) chervil (optional)
8 sprig(s) tarragon (about 1 tablespoon chopped leaves)
2 - chives, chopped
1/2 teaspoon(s) paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Rinse trout and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. Butter a casserole dish big enough to hold the trout.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet and fry the trout for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden. Place the trout in the casserole dish.
  • In the same pan, saute the shallots, adding a little butter if necessary. After 3-4 minutes, pour the Riesling, tarragon, parsley, chervil, chives and paprika over the fish and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and add the creme fraiche. Stir for 2 minutes, and then pour over the fish.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, until fish is flaky. Right before serving sprinkle with some chopped fresh parsley. If desired, serve with steamed potatoes sprinkled with sea salt.
