Sheet Pan Trout And Succotash Recipe Epicurious

SHEET-PAN TROUT AND SUCCOTASH RECIPE | EPICURIOUS

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in top third of oven; preheat to 450°F. Line an 18x13" rimmed baking sheet with foil. Lay trout open like a book, skin side down and alternating head-to-tail next to each other on one half of pan. Sprinkle flesh with Old Bay, then dot with half of butter. Arrange lemon slices over.
• Drape a long (about 30") piece of foil crosswise over other half of pan. Toss together corn, green beans, tomato, salt, and remaining butter on foil. Fold edges up and over to create packet; pinch edges closed.
• Roast until trout is opaque and cooked through, about 10 minutes. You want to check the thickest part of the flesh-if you need to lift a lemon to look at it, do so, and continue roasting until it's totally opaque.
• While fish is cooking, whisk mayonnaise, lemon juice, and pepper in a small bowl until smooth.
• Divide trout and succotash among plates. Serve with mayonnaise sauce alongside.

SEARED TROUT OVER SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
• Make a couple slits in the skin of the trout with a small sharp knife and season the fillets with paprika, salt, and pepper.
• Place the fillets flesh side down in the pan and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the fish and cook until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, another 2 minutes.
• Remove from the skillet and serve over succotash.
• Succotash:
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup frozen baby lima beans
• 1 cup frozen red pepper slices
• 1 cup frozen or canned corn kernels
• 1 cup light or heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock, if needed
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves, for garnish
• Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour until fully distributed. Add the lima beans, red pepper, corn, cream, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook until beans and corn are tender and mixture has thickened slightly, about 7 minutes.
• If mixture becomes too thick or if it begins to stick to the bottom, add 1/2 to 1 cup of stock and combine thoroughly. Garnish with parsley and serve.
• Yield: 3 to 4 servings

SHEET-PAN TROUT WITH GARLICKY BROCCOLINI

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.
