Brook Trout Meuniere With Ginger Stuffing Food

TROUT A LA MEUNIERE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Season the trout fillets with the salt and Essence. Lightly dredge the seasoned trout in the flour, shaking off any excess. Set a 10-inch saute pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil to the pan. Once the oil is hot, place the fish fillets in the pan, 2 at a time and cook for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes per side. Place the cooked fillets on an oven-proof platter and place in the oven while you cook the remaining fillets.
• Once the fish are cooked, return the skillet to the stovetop and set on medium heat. Add the butter to the pan and once melted, add the shallots. As the shallots cook, and the butter stops foaming, about 30 seconds, add the white wine, lemon juice and parsley to the pan. Continue to cook for 15 to 20 seconds, swirling the pan occasionally. Season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat. Remove the fish from the oven and pour the sauce over top the fish. Serve immediately.

BROOK TROUT MEUNIERE WITH GINGER STUFFING

Steps:

• Place the shrimp, cream, ginger, shallots, Tabasco, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture is smooth and thick. This should take 30 to 40 seconds.
• Open the trout, divide the stuffing into four equal portions, and spread the mixture evenly on one side of the open trout. Fold over the other side to enclose the stuffing.
• Pour the milk onto a shallow platter, and mix the flour with salt and pepper in a flat dish. Dip each trout in the milk, shaking off any excess, and dredge each in the flour mixture, patting it to be sure the flour adheres.
• Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the trout in one layer without crowding. Add the trout, and brown thoroughly on one side. Then turn the trout with a spatula, and brown the other side. The process should take about 4 minutes per side. While the fish are browning on the second side, baste the tops with hot oil from the pan to prevent the trout from drying out. When the fish are done, transfer them to a warm platter, and keep warm.
• Wipe out the pan with a paper towel, and return it to medium heat. Melt the butter, and cook until it is hazelnut in color. Stir in the lemon juice. Pour the butter mixture in equal portions over the trout. Garnish with the lemon slices, and sprinkle the parsley over all. Serve hot.

BAKED TROUT MEUNIERE - NICE COMPANY DISH

Steps:

• 1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Melt half of the butter in skillet and saute onions 5 minutes. Add mushrooms, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Mix in parsley, crackers (or Panko crumbs), 1 teaspoon of the salt, 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper, and the thyme.
• 2. Open the trout and spread with the stuffing mixture, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges. Sew opening closed - just enough to prevent leakage, OR use toothpicks to close. It really is best to sew closed, and only takes a couple of minutes.
• 3. Mix flour and the remaining salt and pepper. Coat trout well with flour mixture.
• 4. Melt remaining butter in skillet; cook trout over low heat until browned on all sides. Bake in 350 degree oven for 20 minutes, or until fish flakes easily - do not overcook! Remove fish from oven; carefully snip and remove thread, or toothpicks. Sprinkle with lemon juice, and a small amount of lemon zest and freshly minced parsley, if desired. Serve and enjoy!
