Almond-Crusted Baked Trout

Serves 4 Bake

Ingredients

  • 4 trout fillets or 2 butterflied trout
  • ½ cup sliced almonds, lightly crushed
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon – zest and wedges
  • 2 Tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • Kosher salt and black pepper

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F. Mix almonds, panko, parsley, lemon zest, and oil; season.
  2. Season the trout, brush the flesh with Dijon, and press the almond mixture on top.
  3. Bake on a lined sheet pan 10–12 minutes, until the crust is golden and the fish flakes.
  4. Serve with lemon wedges.

Chef's tip

Toast leftovers of the crumb mix and save it — it upgrades any baked fish.
