Orange Braised Trout With Sauteed Spinach Recipes

Steps:

• Mix 3 tablespoons butter, the lemon zest, juice, shallots and 2 tablespoons chives until well combined. Place the butter onto a small piece of plastic wrap and, using both ends of the plastic wrap, spin it around to make a cylinder. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
• Using needle nose tweezers, remove all the bones from the trout. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over moderate heat in a large nonstick skillet. Sprinkle the trout with salt and pepper. Place the fish skin-side down and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 3 minutes. Using a sharp paring knife, slide the knife into the thickest part of the fish. If you don't feel any resistance, your fish is done. Transfer the fish to serving plates, top with butter and garnish with the remaining chives.
• BYOC: The beauty of this butter is you can make it anything you want. Why not try limes and chiles, lemon and mint, rosemary, thyme and sage? Anything goes when you are in the kitchen.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut 2 large lengths of baking parchment, put thyme in the middle of each one, then top with the trout. Mix the lemon juice with 2 tsp oil and the crushed garlic, pour over the fish and wrap up into 2 parcels, sealing in the juices. Bake for 10 mins on a baking tray.
• Meanwhile, stir-fry the spinach in 1 tsp oil. When almost wilted, add the sliced garlic and the nutmeg, and continue cooking until wilted. Tear the fish parcels open, spoon on the honey and scatter with the lemon zest. Serve still in their parcels, or on top of the spinach.

Steps:

• Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it's very clean. Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves.
• In a very large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic over medium heat for about 1 minute, but not until it's browned. Add all the spinach, the salt, and pepper to the pot, toss it with the garlic and oil, cover the pot, and cook it for 2 minutes. Uncover the pot, turn the heat on high, and cook the spinach for another minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the spinach is wilted. Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with the butter, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkling of sea or kosher salt. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach to the skillet and cover; allow to cook 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic salt and cover again for another 5 minutes; remove from heat. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven broiler.
• Place trout fillets skin side down in a single layer in an ovenproof skillet or pan.
• Scatter green onions over trout; season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour in orange juice and vermouth; sprinkle with dill.
• Heat over high heat to a boil.
• Transfer skillet to broiler; cook until fish is opaque and firm to the touch, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add shallot and garlic.
• Cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
• Add spinach, salt and pepper to taste.
• Toss spinach with tongs until wilted and heated through, about 3 minutes.
• Remove fish to two serving plates.
• Taste sauce; reduce briefly over high heat if sauce is watery; adjust seasoning as desired.
• Drizzle sauce around trout and spinach.

Steps:

• Blanch the garlic slivers in boiling water 3 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and rinse again.
• Wilt the spinach leaves in a large dry pot over high heat, turning occasionally, 3 minutes. Remove from heat, squeeze out excess water and roughly chop. Combine in small bowl with garlic slivers, salt, and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Season inside of trout with salt and pepper. Divide spinach mixture and tuck inside fish. Tie with string around center of each to hold stuffing. Dust the outsides with flour and season with salt and pepper.
• Melt butter and oil in 2 large skillets over high heat. Fry the fish about a minutes per side. Transfer to oven and cook 4 minutes, turning after 2 minutes. Serve hot with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Put cornmeal on a large plate. Lightly pat fish with paper towels and season with salt and pepper, then coat fillet well with cornmeal.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté one third of spinach, stirring constantly, until slightly wilted but still bright green, 15 to 30 seconds. Transfer cooked spinach to a bowl. Sauté remaining spinach with remaining oil in same manner. Season with salt.
• Wipe skillet with a paper towel, then heat 2 tablespoons butter over moderate heat until foam subsides. Increase heat to moderately high and sauté two fillets, skin sides down first, turning once, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes (do not clean skillet). Repeat with remaining butter and fillets, then reserve browned butter in skillet.
• Divide spinach among plates and top with pine nuts and fish, then drizzle fish with browned butter.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375° F.
• Clean the trout and wash well, making sure to remove the line of blood from the inside near the backbone. Dry with paper towels and season inside and out with salt and freshly ground pepper. Put a lump of butter and a sprig of fennel into the center of each trout. Take a large sheet of aluminum foil and smear a little butter on the center. Put the trout onto the buttered bit and fold over the edges into a papillote shape. Seal well to ensure that none of the juices can escape. Repeat with the other trout. Put the two foil parcels on a baking sheet, making sure they are not touching. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the spinach-butter sauce. Remove any large stems from the spinach and wash well. Cook in 2 1/2 cups salted boiling water for 4-5 minutes or until just soft and tender. Drain, pressing out every last drop of water, then mince the spinach. Put the cream into a saucepan and simmer on low heat until reduced to about 3 tablespoons. Then, on a very low heat, whisk in the butter bit by bit as though you were making a hollandaise sauce. Stir in the spinach.
• When the fish is cooked, open the parcels and use some of the delicious juices to thin the sauce. Put the two parcels on a hot serving dish and bring to the table. Skin the fish and lift the juicy pink flesh onto hot plates. Spoon the spinach-butter sauce over the fish and eat immediately.
