Rainbow Trout is delicious and also a healthy meal choice. It’s packed with protein and essential Omega-3 fatty acids, as well as potassium - all of which can help to manage high blood pressure, improve muscle strength, and boost metabolism. Rainbow trout are loaded with phosphorus, and are a good source of Vitamins B6, B12, pantothenic acid, and selenium.

Trout Almondine is a classic American seafood dish that is typically served in fancy restaurants. Amandine, which means “prepared or served with almonds,” is from France. This “French-style,” upscale seafood dish can seem intimidating at first, but in fact, it will be one of the easiest meals you will ever make. Traditionally, this is a fried or pan-seared fish dish dredged in flour; we simplified it even more. For our version, we seasoned the trout fillets, baked them in the oven, and used the baking time to make that luscious butter sauce with toasted almonds. Trust us, this will be a go-to recipe for when you are looking for something extra special, but short on time.
