PANFRIED GROUPER WITH ALMONDS

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.

PAN FRIED FISH

Steps:

• Heat a heavy pan over medium high heat.
• Season fish on meat side with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge fish in flour and shake off excess. When pan is good and hot, add Canola oil followed immediately by 1 tablespoon butter. As soon as foaming subsides, place fish in pan with the skin side down. Jiggle pan for the first 10 seconds to keep the fish from sticking. Cook until golden crust forms on meat. Carefully turn fish away from you and again jiggle pan for the first few seconds. Cook until skin turns golden brown. Remove to a warm plate.
• Pour out the cooking fat, add remaining butter and quickly fry the capers. Remove pan from the heat, add lemon juice to pan and swirl. Pour sauce over the fish and serve.

PAN-FRIED GROUPER RECIPE

Steps:

• Clean the fish fillets. Pat dry. Cover with milk. In a mortar and pestle, combine the fennel, celery seeds and turmeric. Once powdered, add 1 clove garlic, onion, bay leaf and thyme. Add to the milk. Mix well and let sit for 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Set aside.
• Allow your pan to get nice and hot, then add olive oil and pan fry the grouper 2-3 minutes on each side or until you get good color.
• Pat dry the fish fillets one more time. Season with salt and pepper. In a non-stick pan, heat the rest of the oil and add the rest of the garlic, sauteeing until glistening.
• Dust one side of the fillets with flour and place them in the pan, floured side down. Once a thin crust is forming, dust the top with more flour and flip the fish. Pan fry 8 minutes on each side. Baste with butter, flip the fish one more time and wait until you get a lightly golden color.
• Drizzle with lemon juice, cover and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
• Bon appétit!
