Pan Seared Trout With Tarragon Garlic Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Combine garlic, Aleppo pepper, 1/4 cup olive oil and 2 tablespoons lemon juice in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper.
• Lay the trout down flat, skin-side down, on a rimmed sheet pan, fitting the two pieces snugly next to each other. Place lemon slices on top of the trout and scatter broccolini and capers around it. Drizzle everything with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Place in oven and roast until broccolini has started to lightly char around the edges and the trout is opaque and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately drizzle everything with the olive oil-garlic mixture and let the flavors mingle for a minute or two.
• Serve directly from the sheet pan (no shame, just use a trivet). Alternatively, transfer trout to a large serving platter or divide fillets among 4 smaller plates.

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.

Steps:

• Cook shallot in 1 tablespoon butter in a small heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add wine and boil until most of liquid is evaporated, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Pat chicken dry and sprinkle all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté chicken in 3 or 4 batches, turning over once, until golden and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per batch. Transfer as cooked to a platter and keep warm, loosely covered with foil.
• Return shallot mixture to moderately low heat and add remaining 3 tablespoons butter, 1 cube at a time, whisking until incorporated. Remove from heat and whisk in tarragon, parsley, lemon juice, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Spoon sauce over chicken.
