Smoked Trout, Baby Potato Bites Appetizer

This is a quick, easy appetizer that will have your guests drooling. It brings out the bacony flavor of the smoked Trout and the prep work can be done in advance to make serving it simple and quick.

Makes 24 bites

  • 12 Baby potatoes (picture half of it being 1 serving)
  • 1 green onion, chopped
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped smoked Trout
  • 1 T Cold Butter
  • 2 T Cream Cheese
  • Salt & Pepper

Boil the potatoes whole for about 20 minutes. You want them soft but not mush, we need to work with them. Cut the pointy ends off each potato, and then slice in half. On the big side, scoop out a tiny bowl into the potato half. Cut the butter into pads, and then subdivide pads to make small blocks of butter. Place a block of butter in each potato bowl. You don't want too much butter, but you want it to boil over the edges when in the broiler. Broil on high and watch it, once the butter has boiled over and the top of the potato begins to brown, take them out. Mix minced green onion with the chopped smoked trout and add this mixture to each potato half. Top with a bit of cream cheese and return to broiler until the cream cheese starts to brown.
