Trout, Crab and Shrimp in a Lemon Herb Butter Sauce
INGREDIENTS
- 1.5 tablespoons shallots, chopped
- 3/4 cups dry white wine
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 10 tablespoons very cold unsalted butter
- 4 ounces snow crab, cooked
- 4 ounces bay shrimp, cooked
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped and divided
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 5-ounce Riverence Trout Fillets, thawed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
DIRECTIONS
- In a small saucepan, combine shallots, wine and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and stir.
- Reduce heat to medium and cook 5-7 minutes or until the liquid is reduced by half, stirring occasionally.
- Add the butter one tablespoon at a time, gently whisking until melted and sauce is smooth.
- Lower the heat and add the crab, bay shrimp, chives and half of the dill. Warm through but do not boil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pat trout dry with paper towel and season with a little salt and pepper. Preheat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook trout skin side down for 2-3 minutes. Gently press on the fillet with a spatula to get a nice sear. Flip and continue cooking for 2 minutes or until the fish flakes easily. Remove from heat.
- Plate trout and divide the crab and shrimp sauce among each fillet. Garnish with remaining fresh dill and lemon zest.
