Rainbow Trout with Jasmine Rice and Citrus Vinaigrette image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h13m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

4 rainbow trout, heads removed and cleaned
Salt and black pepper
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon butter
Jasmine Rice, recipe follows
Citrus Vinaigrette, recipe follows
3 cups Jasmine rice, rinsed
3 1/2 cups cold water
3/4 cup finely diced onion
1 bay leaf
Salt
White Pepper
1/4 cup Champagne vinegar
3/4 cup fresh citrus juice (lemon, lime, or orange, or a combination), plus more if desired
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 1/2 cups canola-olive oil blend (1 1/4 cups each or your preference)
Salt
White pepper
Steamed fresh seasonal vegetables, accompaniment

Steps:

  • Season trout fillets lightly with salt and pepper on both meat and skin sides. Lightly dust fillets with flour and shake off excess. In a non-stick skillet large enough to hold all 4 fish, heat the oil and butter over high heat until almost smoking. (You may need to work in batches or use 2 skillets if you don't have one that is large enough). Carefully place the trout, meat side down, in the skillet and saute for about 2 minutes or until golden brown. Carefully turn the fish over with tongs and finish cooking on the skin side, about 2 more minutes. With tongs, remove the trout from the skillet and serve immediately with the rice and vinaigrette.
  • Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan. Add enough salt and pepper to make the water taste slightly salty. Cover and bring to a boil. When the water level drops below the rice, reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Simmer for about 8 minutes and turn off the heat. Leave covered and let stand for about 5 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and serve hot with the trout.
  • Add vinegar, citrus juice, shallots, and mustard to a blender. Blend for 30 seconds. Slowly add oil while machine is running until emulsified; the vinaigrette should be thick. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add more citrus juice, to taste, if desired. Drizzle over trout. Toss with steamed fresh seasonal vegetables, if desired.

FRIED RED THAI JASMINE RICE WITH SHRIMP



Fried Red Thai Jasmine Rice With Shrimp image

Thai-style fried rice is an addiction in our household. If you cannot find Alter Eco's ruby red jasmine, you can make this dish with red Bhutanese rice or with regular jasmine rice. This may seem like a lot of fried rice, but believe me, you'll finish it in one sitting.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 10m

Yield Serves four generously as a one-dish meal

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons canola or peanut oil
8 garlic cloves, minced
1 large carrot, peeled and cut in 1-inch long julienne
8 medium or large shrimp about 6 ounces, peeled, deveined and chopped
6 cups cooked ruby red jasmine rice, red Bhutanese or regular jasmine rice (2 cups uncooked)
1 bunch scallions, trimmed, cut in half lengthwise and then into 1-inch lengths
2 tablespoons Thai or Vietnamese fish sauce (omit if sodium is an issue; the high sodium content in this recipe comes from the fish sauce)
2 to 4 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Chopped cilantro
Thinly sliced cucumber
Lime wedges
Scallions
Fish sauce with hot chilies (nam pla prik)
Chopped roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Heat a large wok or large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until a drop of water evaporates upon contact. Add the oil, tilt to spread across the pan, and add the carrot and shrimp. Stir-fry until the shrimp is pink and opaque, about two minutes. Add the garlic, and stir-fry just until golden, 15 to 30 seconds. Add the rice. Stir-fry for about two minutes by scooping the rice up, then pressing it into the pan and scooping it up again. The rice should have a seared taste. Add the scallions and fish sauce, stir together for a half-minute to a minute and transfer to a platter. Sprinkle the cilantro over the top, and serve, passing the garnishes of your choice. Diners should squeeze lime juice onto their rice as they eat.

  • Use the right ratio of water to rice. For 1 cup of jasmine rice, you will need 1 1/2 cups of water.
  • Bring the water to a boil before adding the rice. This will help the rice cook evenly.
  • Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Simmer the rice for 15-18 minutes, or until all of the water has been absorbed.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and let it stand for 5 minutes before fluffing the rice with a fork. This will help the rice separate and prevent it from sticking together.
