Pecan-Crusted Sea Trout with Honey Mustard Green Onion Sauce

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup Honey Mustard
• 1 heaping Tbsp., parsley, chopped
• 3 Green Onions, chopped
• Juice of 1 Lemon
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Sea Trout:

• 4-6 (6oz.) Sea Trout fillets
• Canola Oil
• 1 stick Unsalted Butter

Pecan Crust:

• 1 cup Pecans, finely chopped
• 2 cups finely crushed Potato Chips
• 1 Tbsp. Dried Parsley
• 1 Tsp. Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
• 1/2 Tsp. Cajun Seasoning

Batter:

• 1 cup Milk
• 1 Egg
• 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour
• 1/4 Tsp. Cajun Seasoning

Preparation:

Sauce: Whisk together all ingredients and set aside

Sea Trout: In a large bowl thoroughly combine the potato chips, pecans, parsley, crushed red pepper flakes and Cajun seasoning. In a separate bowl make the batter by whisking together the milk, egg, flour and Cajun seasoning. Dip each fillet in the batter, then press into the pecan-chip mixture, getting a heavy, even coating on both sides. Repeat with all fillets, set aside and let sit about 10 minutes before cooking.

Heat 3 tablespoons butter and 3 tablespoons oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Sauté until crust is browned and fish is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

To Serve: Place fillet on a plate and spoon sauce over the top. Garnish with extra green onions and parsley and serve immediately.

Buen Provecho!!!
