Categories     main-dish

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 pounds boneless, skinless grouper fillet, or substitute snapper or orange roughly
1/2 cup unpeeled slivered almonds
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 small bunch flat leaf parsley, coarse stems removed
Lemon wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Rinse the fillets and pat them dry with paper towels. Check the fish for bones and remove with tweezers, if necessary. In a food processor, combine the almonds, allspice, salt, pepper, cayenne, cumin, and paprika. Pulse until finely ground, but do not over process or the nuts can become oily. In a shallow baking dish, spread out the nut spice mixture. Dredge the fillets in the mixture, one at a time, shaking off the excess.
  • In a large heavy skillet, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Fry the fillets for about 3 minutes on each side, until light brown. With a slotted spatula, remove the fish to a warm platter or individual serving plates and scatter with the parsley sprigs. Serve with wedges of lemon.

I'm allergic to almonds, so I used crushed walnuts instead. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my grouper turned out mushy. I'm going to try this recipe again with a different fish.

This recipe is a bit too rich for my taste. I would recommend using less butter in the sauce.

I had trouble finding grouper at my local grocery store, so I used tilapia instead. It turned out great!

The grouper was a bit dry, but the almond crust and lemon butter sauce helped to make up for it.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The grouper is mild and flaky, while the almonds add a nutty crunch and the lemon butter sauce adds a touch of brightness.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but this recipe changed my mind. The grouper was flaky and delicious, and the almond crust was crispy and flavorful.

This grouper dish was a hit! The almonds added a nice crunch and the lemon butter sauce was divine. I served it with roasted vegetables and it was a perfect meal.
