Instructions
Heat some olive oil in a pan. With kitchen towels dab the filet to make sure it is dry. Sprinkle the filet on both sides with the salt, pepper and cayenne. Place the filet skin side down in the pan. Sprinkle the zest on the flesh. Cook until the skin is golden and crisp, about three minutes. Then flip over and continue to cook for another three to five minutes, depending on the level on doneness you prefer. While the fish is cooking, blend all the ingredients for the puree together. I tasted it and then found I would like some more basil so I added more in. Add the lime juice last. Serve the trout with the puree and some more lime wedges on the side. Enjoy!
Pinot Noir, Pinot Grigio, and Gruener Veltliner are great choices for Rainbow Trout. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. One wine you could try is Barefoot Cellars Pinot Noir Wine. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.
