Well I have never made trout before so your recipe sounded very easy and a bit tasty with nuts and spices. Needless to say, it was a big success!!! The cafe boss ate a piece and said with such cooking I could open my own cafe, so I would like to say Thanks for a great recipe and for helping put another feather in my cap!!!

Excellent. My husband said it was the best trout he had ever had. I used pecans for the nut, ground medium fine. Used whole wheat flour in step 2. Used whole rainbow trout, cleaned but not filleted. For the oil, I used butter flavored Crisco...will definitely make again. Thank you for sharing such a tasty and simple way to dress up trout!

I just couldn't wait until the weekend to post this. This is the best fried fish recipe I have ever tried. I used catfish because that is what is readily available where I live. There is not a thing that I would change about this recipe. I recommend this to anyone who loves fish. I sure am glad I picked you for one of my chefs.

This was so yummy. I made this exactly as directed, and it turned out beautifully. The trout was moist and delicious (mine took more like 8 minutes total), the pecans added a wonderful crunch, and the lemon at the end added a nice zing. The only thing I would do differently is to shake off the excess cornmeal a bit more. It's just delicious as is. We had it with roasted potatoes and a green salad with pears, bleu cheese, pecans, and a light vinaigrette. Excellent - we'll be making this again. Great recipe, SlipC!
