Baked Crunchy Trout Recipes

BAKED FRESH RAINBOW TROUT

Very easy and tasty recipe I invented one day with ingredients on hand, for fresh rainbow trout (farmed or wild) that my family loves. It takes very little time and is much lighter than ocean fish. I use whole fish you can buy already gutted from the supermarket, with heads and tails still on. Make sure you pick trout that are really, really fresh. I find the dish doesn't even need lemon slices but you can use them if you like. The key is to remember to add the water to the dish as instructed in directions, which keeps fish from drying out. Serve with rice and veggies. Light and delicious. Be careful of bones! Make sure to add hot water to the dish; cold water can crack the baking dish.

Crispy Trout with Kitchen Butter Sauce image

Steps:

If it's convenient, set the serving plates to warm in a low oven (175 degrees F) as you prepare the fish.
For the sauce, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and thyme and cook them briefly until lightly browned. Add the cream, bring it to a boil and reduce quickly by half. Add the remaining 10 tablespoons butter gradually, pat by pat, whisking until incorporated. When the sauce is smooth and thick, discard the garlic and thyme and add the chives, sherry vinegar, tarragon and salt and pepper to taste.
Heat two large cast-iron skillets over medium-high heat. Sprinkle both sides of the fish with salt and pepper and dust the skin sides with the flour. When the pans are hot, add enough canola oil to thinly coat the bottom of each and add a fish to each pan, skin-side down. Cook until the skins turn golden brown and opaque doneness creeps into the pink flesh of the fish. You want to cook the fish nearly all the way through on the skin side. Flip the fish and transfer them to a plate to keep warm in the oven. Cook the remaining fish.
Pour 3 to 4 tablespoons of sauce onto each warm plate, top with a trout, skin side pointing up, and serve immediately.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon plus 10 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pats
3 cloves garlic, smashed
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped chives
2 teaspoons sherry or white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon minced fresh tarragon
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 rainbow trout (about 3/4 pound each), butterflied and backbone removed
Instant flour, such as Wondra, or cake flour, for dusting fish
Canola oil, for coating pans

Simple herb-baked trout & horseradish image

Steps:

Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Lay the trout over a lightly oiled baking tray and stuff the fish cavity with slices of lemon and herbs. Season generously all over and drizzle with the remaining oil.
Bake in the oven for 20 mins until the fish is cooked through - the eyes will have turned white and the flesh will be soft to touch. The trout can be served as they are with your favourite seasonal vegetables, but for an added extra touch, peel away the top layer of skin and grate over fresh horseradish before serving.

BAKED TROUT FILLETS

Baked trout recipes show up on my dinner table often. Moist tender trout is draped in a creamy Parmesan cheese coating that makes this dish elegant enough to serve company. I also use the delicious sour cream mixture on salmon. -Mary Zimmerman, Spring Lake, Michigan
