Another inspired recipe by Sian @recipebreakout
Serves 2
Ingredients:
2 Fillet portions of fresh ChalkStream® trout 130g each
10 sun dried tomatoes quartered
A small bunch of spinach
A handful of nocellara /green olives
200ml of double cream
A good handful of Parmesan cheese
2 cloves of garlic
A pinch of paprika
A squeeze of lemon
A sprig of parsley
Method
Start by heating the oil in a pan, season the trout fillets and when it's hot, add them in, skin side down, for just five mins or so, to crisp up the skin a little. Remove and set aside.
Then in the same pan add a knob of butter and gently sauté the chopped garlic for a minute or so with a good pinch of sea salt and the paprika. Then pour in the cream and allow it come to a simmer, before adding in the tomatoes, spinach, olives and cheese
Finally, once the cheese has melted, add the trout back in, flesh side down and allow to cook on a slow simmer for another 5 to 7 mins until the trout is just is just cooked. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and the roughly chopped herbs sprinkled over the top.
