Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 small red onion, finely chopped
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
8 ounces smoked trout, skin and bones removed, flaked
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives, dill, or flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Mix onion, celery, trout, mayonnaise, sour cream, chives, and lemon juice in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper.
  • DO AHEAD: Trout salad can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality smoked salmon or trout. Fresh, high-quality fish will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad. Look for fish that is firm and has a bright, vibrant color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor, color, and texture to your salad. Some good options include chopped cucumber, red onion, celery, and carrots.
  • Use a light dressing. A heavy dressing will overpower the delicate flavor of the smoked fish. A simple vinaigrette or lemon-dill dressing is a good option.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This will prevent the vegetables from becoming soggy.
