From the Test Kitchen

WHY WE LOVE THIS DISH
Savory-sweet glazed trout fillets pair perfectly with hearty potatoes (finished with garlic-herb butter and balsamic onions) and a wintry salad of rosemary-roasted fennel, pear, arugula, and candied pistachios.

TECHNIQUE TO HIGHLIGHT
To make the candied pistachios, you’ll cook them briefly in the pan with date syrup to develop that sweet, sticky coating. Transferring them to parchment or a lightly greased plate is key so they don’t stick to the plate as they cool!

tips & techniques
Roast & finish the potatoes
1 Roast & finish the potatoes

Remove the spreadable butter from the refrigerator to soften. Place an oven rack in the upper and lower thirds of the oven, then preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Line two sheet pans with foil. Halve the potatoes lengthwise. Place in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and the spice blend. Toss to coat. Reserving the bowl, transfer to one sheet pan and arrange in an even layer, cut side down. Place on the lower oven rack; roast, flipping halfway through, 20 to 22 minutes, or until browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Transfer to the reserved bowl. Add the softened butter; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

Prepare the fennel
2 Prepare the fennel

Meanwhile, cut off and discard any stems from the fennel, then halve, core, and thinly slice the bulb. Place the sliced fennel and rosemary sprigs on the remaining sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer on one side of the sheet pan.

Roast the fish & fennel
3 Roast the fish & fennel

In a bowl, combine the maple syrup and mustard. Transfer half the maple mustard to a separate bowl and set aside for serving. Pat the fish dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper on both sides. Place on the other side of the sheet pan of prepared fennel, skin side down. Evenly spread or brush the remaining maple mustard onto the seasoned fish. Place on the upper oven rack; roast 12 to 15 minutes, or until the fennel is tender when pierced with a fork and the fish is cooked through.* Remove from the oven. Carefully discard the rosemary sprigs

*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 145°F for fish.

Meanwhile, line a plate with parchment paper or lightly grease with oil. Roughly chop the pistachios. In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the chopped pistachios; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until lightly toasted. Add the date syrup. Cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes, or until coated. Turn off the heat. Transfer to the prepared plate in an even layer to avoid sticking. Set aside to cool. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.
