Czech Trout Poached in Red Wine Recipe

Serves/Makes: 4

Ingredients:

• 8 small trout fillets (about 3 ounces each)
• 1/2 bottle dry red wine
• 6 shallots, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, mashed
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 bay leaf
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 lemon

How to cook Czech Trout Poached in Red Wine:

• Wash the fish gently in cold water and dry in paper towels. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Place the trout fillets in a large pot so all the trout fit together on the bottom. Add the chopped shallots, mashed garlic, most of the parsley, and bay leaf. Pour on the red wine.
• Bring slowly to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 minutes till the fish is just done. Carefully remove the trout from the pot and keep warm in the oven.
• Turn the heat up high under the wine and cook it vigorously, uncovered, shaking the pot occasionally, till it is reduced by about half. Whisk in the butter to make a thin sauce.
• Serve the poached trout with a little sauce, sprinkle with parsley and with lemon wedges on the side.
