4 servings
- 4 skin-on trout fillets (about 6 oz each)
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
Ingredient noteDried black pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the trace amount used here is so small that it is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
For the almond pan sauce
- ½ cup raw sliced almonds
Ingredient noteThe Mold Detox diet is cautious about nuts because badly stored nuts can carry mold, but fresh almonds are likely tolerated by many on this diet. Buy nuts that look and smell fresh, and keep opened packages in the fridge or freezer. If you prefer to always avoid almonds, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1 lemon)
- 1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped
For serving
- lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Pat the trout fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels, then season both sides with the salt and black pepper.
- 2
Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a 12-inch stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers and a drop of water flicked in sizzles immediately.
