Trout with Green Bean Succotash

Succotash really came into its own during the Great Depression, thanks to its thrifty nature, and we think a clean version seasoned with dill, lemon juice and zest is the perfect accompaniment to our tender pink trout.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup baby lima beans, fresh or frozen (thawed, if frozen), cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 lb fresh green beans, cleaned and washed
  • 2 cups fresh corn (from 2 medium cobs)
  • 3 medium tomatoes, cored and diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (1/4 cup whole dill leaves)
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 4 4-oz trout fillets, skin and bones removed
  • Olive oil cooking spray

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Bring 4 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepot. Add lima beans, cook for 3 minutes, then add green beans and cook for 7 to 8 more minutes. Add corn and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes.
  2. Drain and rinse bean-corn mixture under cool water. Then toss with tomatoes in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together oil, dill, lemon juice and zest, salt and pepper. Pour over vegetables and gently mix.
