SMOKED TROUT AND PESTO LINGUINE



Smoked Trout and Pesto Linguine image

I found this recipe on the net and have made it twice now. It's super quick and easy to make and has a nice, delicate flavour. For two people I used the listed quantity of sauce, 275g of pasta, bottled Barilla pesto and a 100g packet of sliced smoked ocean trout. I imagine an even better result would be achieved using home-made pesto and smoked trout fillets, and plan to try it with these next time along with a little fresh basil for added colour and maybe a sprinkling of toasted pine nuts. I personally prefer a little less lemon, so this time cut it back to just over a half and my SO squeezed the remainder over his meal. Parmesan is optional, but recommended. The ten minutes preparation time includes boiling the water. Recipe from the Scotsman, courtesy of Shapes Restaurant in Edinburgh.

SMOKED TROUT LINGUINE WITH ASPARAGUS AND LIME



Smoked Trout Linguine With Asparagus and Lime image

They make the most amazing smoked trout here in Costa Rica and I've been looking for ways to use it other than as an appetizer. This is my take on a smoked salmon pasta dish I had once-upon-a-time! Note: this would probably be better with lemon, but they're almost impossible to find here. Let me know if it's an improvement!

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     weekday, pastas, main course

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound medium asparagus
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 smoked trout, skinned, boned and broken in chunks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 pound fresh fettuccine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill

Steps:

  • Snap the ends off the asparagus where they break naturally. Peel the spears. Cut the asparagus in one-inch lengths.
  • Place the asparagus in a steamer or a pot of simmering water and steam or cook about three minutes, until they are just tender and still bright green. Refresh the asparagus under cold running water. Dry them well.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the shallots and saute over low heat until soft but not brown, about three minutes. Stir in the cream and simmer about five minutes, until the mixture starts to thicken. Add the trout and the asparagus. Remove from heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the lemon juice.
  • When the water is boiling, add the fettuccine and boil about three minutes. Drain well and transfer to a warm serving dish. Reheat the contents of the skillet and pour over the fettuccine. Toss well. Scatter the dill on top and serve.

  • Make sure the pesto is flavorful: The pesto is what really makes this dish sing, so make sure it's packed with flavor. Use a good quality olive oil, fresh basil, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the recipe to your taste: This recipe is a great starting point, but feel free to adjust it to your own taste. For example, you could add more or less garlic, or use a different type of cheese in the pesto.

Conclusion:

Smoked trout and pesto linguine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. The trout is mild and flaky, while the pesto is flavorful and creamy. The combination of the two makes for a truly unforgettable dish. So next time you're looking for a new pasta recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed.
