Whats for Dinner?? CRISPY TROUT AMANDINE and apple and endive salad

CRISPY TROUT AMANDINE


1 Tbsp + 1 tsp olive oil
1 trout fillet, about 6 oz
1 Tbsp cornmeal
1/2 tsp chopped fresh parsley
1 cup green beans, trimmed
2 tsp sliced almonds
Salt and pepper to taste

1. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. While the pan is heating, sprinkle the flesh side of the trout with salt, pepper, and cornmeal, pressing lightly so the corn- meal sticks.

2. Place in the pan, flesh side down, and sauté for 4 minutes. Flip it and cook for another 2 minutes. Top with the parsley.

3. Place the beans in a steamer basket and steam for 5 minutes. Toss them with the remaining oil, the almonds, and the salt and pepper. Makes 1 serving
Simple side: apple and endive salad
• 1 head endive
• 1 small green apple
• 1 tbsp diced walnuts
• 1 tbsp low fat balsamic vinaigrette
Directions
1. Peel off the outer leaves of the endive (think of it as a single serving of lettuce) and chop into bite size pieces. Core the apple, then chop it into bite size pieces. Toss well, then top with the nuts and dressing.
