Print Recipe
1 2.5oz package of Flanigan Farms Pepitas
2 tbsp flour
½ tbsp salt
¼ tbsp fresh ground black pepper
4  4-6 oz. trout fillets
1 large clove of garlic, crushed
2 medium shallots sliced thin
Canola oil cooking spray
1½ tbsp corn starch
1½ cups vegetable broth or chicken broth
¼ tbsp crushed red pepper
3 tbsp chopped, fresh cilantro
1 tbsp fresh lime juice

In a food processor, finely grind the Pepitas with flour, ¼ teaspoon of salt and the pepper.
Pour this mixture into a flat bowl.

Rinse each piece of trout with water, then place damp fish in bowl to coat with Pepita mixture on both sides; set aside.

Spray a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray and saute the garlic and shallots until tender (about 5 minutes).
Add the cornstarch to the chicken broth and stir to completely dissolve. Pour chicken broth into the pan and heat
with the garlic/shallot mixture until it starts to bubble and slightly thicken.
Transfer to food processor and add the remaining ¼  teaspoon salt, red pepper, cilantro, and lime juice.
Process until smooth and set aside.

Clean skillet and spray with cooking spray. Heat at medium heat, and cook trout fillets for 2 to3 minutes per side (until fish is cooked through and Pepita coating is lightly browned). Place fish onto a serving dish and top with sauce (or serve on the side).
