This is a recipe I emulated from a top restaurant in Denver. It turned out great. Friends and family give it rave reviews. I serve this with Long Grain and Wild Rice. Ingredients:
1 lb steelhead trout or 1 lb salmon fillet |
1 (16 ounce) can apricots |
4 -5 green onions (chopped) |
1 (8 ounce) can diced pineapple |
1 red bell peppers or 1 yellow bell pepper (chopped or sliced small) |
1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice |
1 1/2 teaspoons dried cilantro (or 1/4 cup chopped fresh) |
fresh ground pepper |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium bowl, combine apricots (reserve juice), pineapple, green onions, and bell pepper.
3. Sprinkle with lime juice and cilantro.
4. Toss all and chill for at least one hour.
5. Place trout/salmon filets in lightly greased 9x11 inch baking dish (I use butter to grease the pan).
6. Cover trout with salsa.
7. Gently pour reserved apricot juice over all.
8. Place in oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes.
