Trout Meuniere

Melissa Spangler's Note:

Very popular dish in South Louisiana using fresh caught trout. This recipe calls for regular white flour, but use whole wheat flour if you want to lower the Glycemic Index. From Sugarfree New Orleans.

Absolutely delicious! So simple yet full of flavor. I used tilapia fillets (a favorite at our house). Only used about 1 cup of flour. Thanks for sharing!
