- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon, plus 2 teaspoons Essence, recipe follows
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 4 (6-ounce) trout fillets
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons butter, plus 6 tablespoons, cut into pieces
- 1 cup pecan pieces
- 4 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
- Herb Nage, recipe follows
- 2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 2 cups mild herb leaves (mint, tarragon, parsley, basil and chives)
- 1/2 cup frisee
- 1/2 cup radicchio
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Method
- In a shallow bowl, combine the flour with 1 tablespoon of Essence.
- In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
- Season both sides of each fish with the remaining 2 teaspoons of Essence.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
- Dredge the fillets in the flour, coating evenly.
- Dip the fillets in the egg mixture.
- Dredge again in the flour, shaking to remove any excess.
- When the oil is hot but not smoking, add the fillets and pan fry until golden, about 3 minutes per side.
- Transfer to a warm platter.
- Discard any oil remaining in the skillet and wipe clean with paper towels.
- Return the skillet to the stove.
- Over medium heat-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter.
- When the butter foams, add the pecans and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the parsley, garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire, and cream, and cook, whisking, for 15 seconds.
- Remove from the heat.
- Add the salt and cayenne.
- Return to low heat and whisk in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, adding each piece before the previous one has been completely incorporated.
- Continue until all the butter is incorporated and the sauce coats the back of a spoon, removing the pan from the heat to prevent the sauce from getting too hot and breaking.
- Remove from the heat.
- To serve, place the fillets on dinner plates and spoon the sauce on top.
- Place Herb Nage next to trout fillets.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
- Yield: about 2/3 cup
