Trout Almondine

Ingredients

1/4 cup, sliced Almonds
4 Tbsp. All purpose flour or garbanzo flour
1/8 tsp. Cayenne pepper
1/4 cup 2% milk
1 Tbsp. Olive oil
12 ounces Fresh trout (2 6-ounce filets)
1 tsp.. Unsalted butter
1 clove Garlic, raw (finely minced)
4 Tbsp White wine
2 Tbsp. Lemon juice
1/8 tsp. Salt

Instructions

Place the almonds in a small skillet over medium high heat.

Cook for about 10 minutes, tossing frequently, until the almonds are lightly toasted. Reduce the heat if necessary so that they toast and do not burn. Set aside.

Combine the flour and cayenne pepper on a plate until well blended.

Place the milk on a second plate.

Place a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl.

When the oil is hot, dredge each trout fillet in the milk and then the flour.

Place the dredged fish fillets in the pan and cook on one side for about 6 minutes.

Turn and cook for another 4 to 6 minutes.

Remove the fish to the serving plates, then add the butter to the pan.

Add the garlic and cook for about 2 minutes. Stir frequently.

Add the white wine, lemon juice, and salt. Cook for about 2 minutes.

Add the almonds, cook for about one minute, then pour the sauce over the trout.

Serve.

Recipe Notes

Trout Almondine was oh, so fancy when I was growing up. I have always had a soft spot for it and didn’t realize that I hadn’t posted the recipe on the Web site. Here it is. Still great. I really do prefer the garbanzo flour over the white flour. It’s nice and light and doesn’t have the dry flavor that white flour has, plus it brings a nice nuttiness to your dish.
