  • Pecan-Crusted Trout with Orange-Rosemary Butter Sauce

    http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/1663

    This recipe was FANTASTIC!!! I still have leftover sauce, which was time consuming to make, but I froze it and will use it again. I used Rainbow trout. Yum!!

    At the fish market, ask them to remove the head, tail and bones from the trout, then to cut each trout into two fillets, leaving the skin intact.

    Servings: Serves 4.

    IngredientsFor trout
    2 cups pecans (about 8 ounces)
    1 cup all purpose flour
    2 large (12- to 14-ounce) trout, filleted, skin left intact
    3 large egg whites, beaten to blend

    For sauce
    1 1/2 cups fresh orange juice
    1 cup dry wine
    2/3 cup chopped shallots
    1/4 cup white wine vinegar
    8 5-inch-long fresh parsley stems
    1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 large fresh thyme sprig
    2 fresh rosemary sprigs
    1/4 cup whipping cream
    3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 12 pieces


    For assembly
    4 tablespoons olive oil
    1 carrot, peeled, cut into matchstick-size strips
    1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
    6 cups thinly sliced savoy cabbage


    2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter


    Chopped fresh chives

    PreparationMake trout:
    Combine pecans and 1 tablespoon flour in processor. Grind pecans finely; transfer to plate. Place remaining flour on another plate. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Dip 1 fillet into flour to coat; shake off excess. Using pastry brush, brush flesh side with egg whites. Place fillet, egg white side down, onto pecans; press to coat with nuts. Transfer to waxed paper-lined baking sheet, pecan side down. Repeat with remaining 3 fillets; chill.
    Make sauce:
    Combine first 7 ingredients in medium saucepan. Boil 10 minutes; add rosemary. Boil until liquid is reduced to 1/2 cup, about 10 minutes. Strain sauce into another medium saucepan, pressing on solids in sieve. Add cream; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Whisk in butter 1 piece at a time (do not boil). Season with salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature up to 2 hours.

    To assemble:
    Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large Dutch oven over high heat. Add carrot and bell pepper; toss 2 minutes. Add cabbage; toss until cabbage wilts, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.

    Melt 1 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Place 2 fillets, pecan side down, into skillet. Cook until crust is golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Using spatula, turn fillets over. Cook until just opaque in center, about 2 minutes. Transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining butter, oil and fish.

    Whisk sauce over low heat to rewarm (do not boil). Divide vegetables among plates. Top with fish. Spoon sauce around fish and vegetables. Sprinkle with chopped chives and serve.

    Sounds delish but I hate pecans. What other nuts can I substitute (I also hate walnuts)?

        You could probably use almonds, amcadamia nuts, or no nuts at all, but it was delish with the pecans.

        It makes a lot of sauce that is very heavy on the butter, so a little goes a long way. I still have quite a bit left over that I think I may use on some chicken.

            I want to print this from the epicurious website but I want to know if your description above is exactly the same as the website or did you add comments/alter the recipe in any way?
            If you have comments/changes I'd like to go with your version.

              I skipped the cabbage, bell pepper, and carrot and just served with steamed broccoli. Other than that, I followed to a tee.

              There was plenty of nuts for coating, flour, and egg. Maybe my fish filets were smaller, but I didn't need as much as I laid out.

              It took a long time to get the sauce reduced to 1/2 cup, but it was worth it!

                    ITA. I LOVE this sauce! Yum yum! Everything turned out terrific, I really love it and will definitely make it again. Like you, I had way too much flour, egg white and nuts. Also, I didn't use as much butter in the sauce simply bc I didn't have it. I used 1 stick instead of 1.5 and it was still delicious. In fact, I think I could cut back even a little more.
                    I made it with steamed broccoli with a lemon butter pepper sauce and mashed potatoes with ricotta and parmesan.
                    I can't wait to eat the leftovers! again for posting!
