CRISPY LEMON-COCONUT PAN-FRIED TROUT RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• 1. In a high-sided frying pan or skillet, pour peanut oil to a depth of 1/2 inch. Heat over medium-high heat. (If oil is smoking, it is too hot.) 2. While oil is heating, whisk milk and egg together in a shallow bowl. Place flour in another shallow dish. Mix lemon zest, panko, and coconut flakes in a third dish. 3. Dip each fillet in egg mixture, then dredge in flour. Shake off excess flour. Dip floured fillet in egg mixture again, then lightly coat in the panko mixture. 4. Place coated fillet in hot oil, skin side down. When bottom is lightly browned, flip fillet. Cook until medium-brown, then flip back to skin side and cook until skin side is also medium-brown. When fully cooked, the skin will be crisp and the trout will flake easily. Serve immediately.

PAN-FRIED TROUT WITH ROSEMARY, LEMON AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Press 1/2 teaspoon of the rosemary needles into the flesh of each trout fillet. Combine the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Coat the fillets in the seasoned flour.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the trout and saute until cooked through, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the trout from the pan and place on warmed plates. Add the shallots to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, for 15 seconds.
• Pour in the wine and reduce to 1/3 cup, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, capers and remaining teaspoon rosemary and remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place 1 trout fillet on each of 4 plates, spoon the sauce over the trout and serve immediately.

LEMON TROUT

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, lemon pepper, salt, thyme, cayenne and half of the lemon zest. Combine the lemon juice and remaining lemon zest in a shallow dish and soak fish fillets for about 1 minute.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip the trout fillets in the flour mixture so that both sides are coated. Shake off the excess and place fillets in the hot oil. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and fish can be flaked with a fork. Discard the leftover lemon juice.
• Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels briefly before serving. Garnish each serving with a wedge of lemon.
