Instructions
Mix the flour with the salt and pepper in a shallow bowl.
Dip the trout into the bowl and thoroughly coat both sides with the seasoned flour.
Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large pan over medium heat.
Add the lemon slices to the pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes.
Remove the lemon from the pan and place to one side.
Add the floured trout filets to the pan, skin-side down.
Cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
Flip the trout and fry for a further 2 to 3 minutes, or until cooked through.
Remove the trout from the pan.
Add the remaining butter to the same pan and allow it to melt.
After 2 minutes, add the almonds and allow them to gently toast in the butter until golden.
Add the lemon zest and cook for a further 30 seconds.
Plate up the trout straight away and drizzle on the almonds and butter. Top with the chopped fresh parsley and seared lemon slices before serving.
