This is a somewhat simplified version of a recipe from 'Basque Cooking and Lore' by Darcy Williamson. Our second home is in SW Idaho, which has a strong Basque community, and we have learned to love the Basque cuisine. Ingredients:
4 whole trout (cleaned) |
3/4 cup dry red wine |
1/4 cup olive oil |
2/3 cup finely chopped onion |
1 1/2 tablespoons finely cut fresh mint |
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
20 whole black peppercorns |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Lay fish in one layer in oven-proof dish.
2. Combine remaining ingredients, pour over fish, and let stand 30 minutes.
3. Turn and marinate 15 minutes longer.
4. Bake in preheated 350F oven for 25 minutes or until fish is firm to the touch.
5. OR Freeze fish with marinade in zip-lock bag.
6. Thaw and bake as above.
