Spicy almond fish sticks

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons Ground cayenne
½ cup Roasted and ground almonds
¾ cup Panko bread crumbs
½ cup Grated Parmesan cheese
16 2-ounce pieces of halibut
⅓ cup Walnut oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup Flour
4 Egg whites, slightly beaten
4 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Thoroughly mix the nutmeg and the cayenne and set aside. In a bowl combine the almonds, Panko and the cheese.

To prepare, brush the fish pieces lightly with the walnut oil.

Lightly salt and pepper each piece, then sprinkle the nutmeg-cayenne mixture evenly over the fish. Dredge the fish in the flour and shake off the excess. Next, thoroughly coat each piece in the egg whites then dredge them in the almond mixture. Heat a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and sauté the fish sticks until they begin to turn brown and crusty. Finish cooking the sticks in a 425 degree oven for about 5 minutes or until the fish is firm to the touch.

Yield: 8 servings
