RECIPE OF THE DAY!
Mediterranean Steelhead Trout Delight
Recipe
Ingredients:
1.5 lb steelhead trout (3 fish fillets)
1 tablespoon Italian herb seasoning (dried thyme, oregano, parsley, combined)
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons capers (drained)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
3 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
2 tablespoons butter (softened)
Directions:
Season the tops of steelhead trout fillets with Italian herb seasoning and salt generously. The fillets should have skins on the bottom.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
Place fillets skin side up in the skillet. Cook for about 2 minutes on medium heat, making sure the oil does not smoke.
Flip the fillets to skin side down and cook for another 2 minutes on medium-low heat.
Remove from heat, cover the skillet, and let sit for 5-10 minutes until the trout is flaky and cooked through.
Carefully remove the fillets to a plate. Scrape the fish skin off the bottom of the pan, retaining the fish oil.
For the sauce: Add capers, minced garlic, and lemon juice to the same skillet. Cook on medium-low for about 1 minute until garlic softens.
Remove from heat and stir in butter until melted and creamy.
Return trout fillets to the skillet, spoon sauce over the fillets, and serve immediately.
