Instructions

  1. 1

    Thaw fillets (in warm water if necessary).

  2. 2

    Mix flour, salt, and pepper in a bowl for dredging.

  3. 3

    Melt butter in a skillet large enough for all fillets; add some extra virgin olive oil.

  4. 4

    Dredge each fillet through flour mixture to coat each side lightly. Place each one carefully into simmering butter and oil.

  5. 5

    Cook about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a drip rack.

  6. 6

    With heat still under the skillet, add toasted almonds, wine, lemon juice and zest, capers, and basil. Continue to simmer the mixture until it reduces nicely.

  7. 7

    Plate the fillets and cover with almond-lemon sauce.

💡 Cook's Notes
