Preheat oven to 180°C. Put four 2-cup capacity ovenproof dishes on an oven tray in oven for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add leek, garlic, thyme and chilli. Cook for 3 minutes or until leek is soft. Stir in tomatoes. Bring to the boil. Simmer for 5 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken.
-
Stir in capsicum and spinach leaves, then season with salt and pepper. Gently fold in trout, then transfer mixture to hot dishes.
