Smoked Rainbow Trout Salad
This Smoked Rainbow Trout Salad is creamy, bright, a little fancy, and comes together in minutes with pantry staples.
Servings 2
- 1 tin smoked rainbow trout drained
- 1 hard-boiled egg chopped
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon garlic aioli mustard or Dijon if that’s what you have
- 1 tablespoon capers drained
- 1 tablespoon finely diced red onion
- 1 tablespoon chopped pickled peppers
- Pinch of salt
- Black pepper
- Dried parsley or herb blend
- Red pepper flakes optional
- 1 or 2 brown rice cakes for serving
In a bowl, mix the smoked trout, chopped egg, mayo, and garlic aioli mustard until gently combined.
Stir in the red onion, capers, and pickled peppers. Taste and adjust—more pickled peppers for brightness, more mayo for creaminess.
Add salt, black pepper, and dried herbs. A pinch of chili flakes takes it over the top.
Spoon the trout salad onto a brown rice cake. Top with extra pickled peppers and a sprinkle of seasoning.
Serve immediately
