Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Barley Risotto

    In a medium pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the barley and toast for 2-3 minutes until lightly golden. Slowly add the vegetable broth, one cup at a time, stirring constantly until the barley is tender and creamy, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Tomatoes

    In a bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, remaining olive oil, chopped basil, and chili flakes. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Asparagus

    In a separate pan, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the asparagus and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender, seasoning with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Pan Roast the Trout

    In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the trout fillets with salt and pepper. Place the trout skin-side down in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Carefully flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is cooked through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    On a plate, serve a portion of barley risotto topped with marinated tomatoes, asparagus on the side, and the pan-roasted trout on top. Drizzle with any remaining chili broth if desired.
