Preparation

  • Cut the trout fillets in strips about a half centimeter thick. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter, add the strips of fish, and fry until lightly browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the shallot and chives; deglaze the pan with the white wine and add the crème fraîche. Reduce the sauce until it begins to emulsify; then finish with the vinegar and saffron.
  • Presentation: Arrange the lettuce in the center of a large plate. Set the fish around it and carefully spoon the warm saffron sauce on top. Garnish with rosettes of Tête de Moine AOP, pumpkin seeds, and sprouts. Serve with a rustic, country-style bread.
