1

Add boiling hot water to dried peppers, cover with lid and allow to rehydrate for 30 minutes. Drain peppers and remove stems and seeds. Using a knife, remove as much of the skin from the peppers as possible.

2

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheet with foil, roast tomatoes and garlic for about 1 hour. Garlic should be soft and tomato skins should be wrinkled. Remove and set aside.

3

Peel skins from garlic and tomatoes.

4

In a food processor, add 4-8 cloves worth of the roasted garlic, tomatoes, and peppers. Pulse until semi smooth. Add vinegar, almonds, and process until semi smooth.

5

Add in bread and EVOO, pulsing until desired consistency. Taste and adjust seasoning.

6

Season the inside and outside of the trout with salt and pepper. Stuff with lemon rounds.

7

Fold the trout closed. Place on a lightly oiled baking sheet, bake at 350-375°F for about 10 minutes until the meat is flakey.

8

Remove from the oven, top with romesco sauce.
