Garlic Poached Trout
2 pounds fish fillets
1 cup low-fat milk
4 cloves of garlic, crushed very well
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sugar
Pinch nutmeg
2 teaspoons butter
1 Tablespoon flour
Microwave or Oven bake
For a quick, delicious microwave meal......
In a 1-qt, microwave-safe baking dish, combine the milk, crushed
garlic, salt, paprika, sugar and nutmeg. Cover and cook on high
(100 percent) power until the milk comes to a boil. Add
the fillets to the milk, with thick parts toward the outside and
thin parts toward the center. If the fillets aren't covered by
the liquid, spoon some over the fish. Cover and cook on high (100
percent) power for 3 minutes. Give the dish a one-quarter
turn and cook for 3-4 minutes longer depending upon strength of
microwave. Allow to stand 1 minute. Use a flat spatula to remove
fish to plates. Cover to keep warm. If you are making the sauce
(below), keep the liquid.
Sauce: In a small dish, mash the butter and
the flour together to form a lump. Stir this into the cooking
liquid from the fish, until the butter melts. Cook on high (100
percent) power for 1 minute. Stir and cook until the liquid
is boiling and thickened. Pour sauce over fish.
This is a good dish to serve with pasta.
Oven Cooking: Prepare milk and other seasonings
(or your favorite combo) same as above. Using ovenproof
baking dish, be sure that milk mixture completely covers top of
fillets. Cook at 375' until milk is evaporated and fish flakes.
Careful to not overcook. Try variations for toppings in the milk
mixture: green onions, Italian breadcrumbs, diced peppers, bacon
bits.

Trout Amandine
2 Trout fillets
3 Tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup sliced almonds
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Note: Dust the fish with the flour mixture
up to 30 minutes in advance and store between sheets of waxed
paper in the refrigerator.
Mix the flour with the salt and pepper. Dredge the trout fillets
in the mixture and shake off any excess flour. Heat the butter
and olive oil in a non-stick skillet over med-high heat. When
the butter starts to foam, add the trout fillets, skin-side down.
Saute about 5 minutes, until the skin is golden brown. Use a spatula
to carefully turn the fish. Lower the heat to keep the butter
and oil from burning. Cook 3 to 4 minutes longer, taking care
not to overcook! Transfer the fish to individual plates. Add the
chopped almonds to the skillet and fry them about 3 minutes until
slightly browned. Stir in the lemon juice and parsley. Spoon the
almonds and parsley and a little of the butter over each fillet.
Makes 2 servings.
