Almond-Crusted Halibut
Check out this beautiful halibut, perfectly crusted with almonds. It’s not just eye candy; it’s a palate-pleaser too!
Ingredients
- 4 (6-ounce) halibut fillets
- 1 cup almonds, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- First off, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). We want that heat just right.
- In a bowl, mix them finely chopped almonds with breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese. Season this crunch mix with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Now, grab those halibut fillets. Pat them dry and give ’em a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
- Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on top of each fillet. Don’t be shy with the mustard; it’s gonna kick things up a notch!
- Now, take that almond mixture and press it onto the mustard-covered side of the halibut. Make sure it’s nice and packed!
- In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once it’s hot, place your almond-crusted fillets in the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes until they’re golden brown.
- Carefully flip the fillets. Now, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
- Once done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for just a moment. Garnish with fresh parsley to make everything pop.
Serve this beauty up with some steamed veggies or a light salad on the side. Trust me, your soul and stomach will thank you!
