Rainbow Trout with Salsa

DANCING AND COOKING FOR LOVE


Have you ever just happened onto something and your brain shouts "that's it"!!
This happened to me with President's Choice Salsa.
Having been placed on a low cholesterol diet by my doctor, getting older and genetics being the cause, I have become a fanatical label reader and lo-fat and lo-salt product seeker.
PC salsa, which comes in many varieties is one of my favourites. Lo fat, lo salt and great flavour. I use them as a salad dressing, a mixer with cottage cheese and avocado and as a topping when cooking various dishes. Today's example being Rainbow Trout.

I only use fresh Rainbow Trout - best deal in town is at Costco.

Ingredients:
One side of fresh rainbow trout
2 tablespoons of PC Salsa - 1 tbs each Chipotle and Peach/Mango
Pam Spray


Cooking Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees fahrenheit
Preheat an oven-ready frying pan on your stove top
Spray a light 'dose; of Pam into the pan
Place the trout skin down into the pan
Spoon the salsa on to the trout and spread out over its entire length
Saute for 3 minutes
Place pan with trout into your oven for no more than 5 minutes
Remove from oven and serve with recommended side dish

Side Dish -
1 large baked potato - peeled and cubed
1 medium sweet onion (Vidalia if possible) peeled and sliced
1 crushed garlic clove
2 teaspoons of canola or extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Combine all of these ingredients and place on a baking tray or dish
Place into a preheated (400 degree fahrenheit) oven
Cook for 30 to 40 minutes

Take out of oven and plate with the trout

As well, steam up a portion of green beans on your stove top to serve with the dish

Play some salsa music in the background, open up your favourite bottle of wine and enjoy the love!
