Cornmeal-almond trout

This dish sports an enticing crust, crunchy and flavored with a hint of almonds. If you’d like to add some heat, you could stir a little cayenne pepper into the coating mixture or just pass the hot sauce at the table when serving. Readily available and often inexpensive, farm-raised rainbow trout are larger and sweeter than brook trout. But you could also use flounder or snapper instead of the trout if desired. Sprinkle the finished dish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions if you have either on hand. Make a meal of this delicious fish with steamed Yukon Gold potatoes and a summer-squash medley on the side.
