Steelhead Trout With A Creamy Tarragon Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly oil the grate of your grill. Arrange lemon slices on the grate so they overlap slightly and form a shape slightly larger than your trout fillet.
• Preheat grill for medium heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat.
• Saute garlic and onion in the hot oil until the garlic browns slightly, 2 to 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the reserved lemon ends over the garlic mixture.
• Gently lay the trout fillet onto the lemons with the skin side down. Brush the garlic mixture over the top of the fish.
• Cook trout on hot grill until the fish flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Prepare a baking or roasting pan by lining it with foil and brushing it with olive oil.
• Preheat broiler.
• Mix together all remaining ingredients except fish into a well-blended paste.
• Place fish skin-side down (if it has skin) on baking sheet, then spread seasoning over flesh.
• Broil fish at second rack away from heat for 5 minutes or less, just enough to sear flesh but not burn herbs.
• Lower fish to 3rd or 4th rack and lower oven heat to 325°F Bake for 10 additional minutes, or until fish is cooked through in the thickest portion.
• Serve with steamed vegetables, salad, orzo salad, whatever.

Steps:

• 1. Zest and juice the lemon, reserving 1/4 teaspoon of the zest and 1 teaspoon of the juice. Also, if desired, reserve 2 lemon slices for garnish - optional.
• 2. Blend together the flour, salt and lemon pepper. Place the fillets in the flour to even coat, turn and coat the other side with the seasoned flour.
• 3. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fish to the melted butter and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turn and cook the other side another 2 to 3 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when lightly pierced with a fork. Transfer fish to serving plates and cover with foil to keep warm.
• 4. Add garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute. Add the wine and cook the sauce until reduced and almost evaporated, deglazing the pan by scraping up browned bits. Stir in the tarragon and the reserved 1/4 tsp lemon zest and 1 tsp lemon juice.
• 5. Spoon sauce over each fillet. Garnish with lemon slice, and serve immediately.
