Trout with greens and chickpeas


Trout or salmon both work well in this simple dish.  When the packet is cooked and ready, all you need to add is some good bread and a glass of white wine!




Trout with Greens and Chick Peas

Spinach or beet greens
1 clove of garlic
1 T olive oil
Trout fillets
Salt and pepper
Red pepper flakes
1 can (15 oz) chick peas
Other vegetables of choice, like green beans

In a food processor, chop together some greens with a clove of garlic.  With the blades running, add the oil to make a paste.  On pieces of foil, arrange more greens, the vegetables, and the chick peas.  Place a trout fillet on top and season it with the salt and peppers.  Rub the fish with the herb paste.  Wrap up the foil packages and bake on a baking sheet for 15 to 20 minutes at 400.
