Description
A refreshing and flavorful Poached Trout Potato Salad that combines tender trout with creamy dressing and fresh vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium-sized trout fillets (about 8 ounces each)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
- In a large pot, bring water to a gentle simmer. Season the water with 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Carefully add the trout fillets and poach for about 8-10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove the trout and let it cool slightly, then flake it into bite-sized pieces.
- While the trout is poaching, place the halved baby potatoes in a separate pot and cover them with water. Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain and let them cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth.
- Add the cooled potatoes, flaked trout, chopped dill, green onions, and cherry tomatoes to the bowl. Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with the dressing.
- Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
- For a smoky flavor, consider adding smoked trout instead of poached trout.
- You can substitute the baby potatoes with sweet potatoes for a different taste and added nutrition.
