Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 4 main-course servings

Ingredients

5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons minced shallot
1/4 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (15- to 19-ounce) can white beans, rinsed and drained
2 smoked-trout fillets (1/2 pounds total), skinned and flaked
1 bunch watercress (6 ounce), tough stems discarded
1 head Bibb lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring oil, shallot, zest, juice, salt, and pepper to a simmer in a 2-quart heavy saucepan and stir in beans. Remove from heat and let stand, uncovered, 10 minutes for beans to absorb flavor.
