Preparation

Step 1

1. Combine buttermilk, 1 1/2 tablespoons chile powder and salt in a shallow bowl. Place cornmeal in another shallow dish. Dip each trout fillet in the buttermilk mixture, coating both sides, then dredge both sides in the cornmeal.

2. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook 2 fillets skin-side up until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side (it’s OK if the pan is crowded). Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining oil and fillets.

3. Add butter and shallot to the pan; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the remaining 1/2 tablespoon chile powder. Increase heat to medium-high. Add broth and Worcestershire; cook until the sauce is reduced by about one-third, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the sauce over the trout and sprinkle with pine nuts.
