Trout Florentine
I found this recipe in an issue of Texas Saltwater FISHING Magazine.
My wife has made it twice and each time it has been INCREDIBLE.
I scanned the page, but it didn't come out very clear so I have retyped it here...
Give it a try next time you catch some specks. (Sure it would be good with redfish, snapper or any other fresh fish)
You won't be sorry!!!!
Ingredients:
8 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
salt
white pepper
2 Tbsp dry sherry

Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a saucepan. Add the flour and cook without browning for 4 to 5 minutes. Gradually add the milk, while whisking constantly. Continue to stir until the sauce has thickened and is smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the sherry and set aside.

Spoon spinach sauce mixture over each filet. Sprinkle with bread crumbs drizzle butter evenly over filets. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until flaky.
