Trout with Vegetable Stew

2 tablespoons butter or margarine

1 small onion, sliced

1 clove garlic, pressed or minced

1 small red bell pepper, stemmed,seeded, and cut in 1/8-inch strips

1 pound zucchini or yellow crook-neck squash (or 1/2 lb. each), sliced into 1/8-inch rounds

1 tablespoon fresh tarragon leaves,chopped

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

3 whole 10- to 11-inch dressed trout with head and tail (8 to 10 oz. each), rinsed and patted dry

Lemon wedges

Salt

Melt butter in a 10- to 12-inch frying pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until onion is limp, about 4 minutes. Add bell pepper, zucchini, tarragon, and pepper; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until squash is tender-crisp, about 10 minutes.

Shake pan to make vegetables level, then lay trout on top; cover and cook until trout is just opaque in thickest part (cut to test), about 5 minutes. Transfer the trout and vegetables to a platter or plates. Accompany with lemon and salt to add to taste. Makes 3 servings.
