Panfried Grouper With Almonds Food

GREEN BEAN-CITRUS SALAD WITH ALMONDS

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water and blot dry with paper towels. (You can refrigerate the green beans, covered, for up to 4 hours.)
• Whisk the lime juice, orange juice, vinegar, mustard and honey in a large bowl. Slowly add the olive oil, whisking constantly, until the dressing is emulsified. Add the green beans, orange and grapefruit segments, cilantro, red onion and jalapeno; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper; sprinkle with the almonds.

PAN-FRIED FISH ALMONDINE

Steps:

• First make the almondine breading by placing Panko breadcrumbs, lemon zest, and sliced almonds into a food processor.
• Pulse until it reaches a fine consistency. *The breading adheres to the fish better this way.*.
• If applicable, debone the fish and remove the skin.
• Salt and pepper the fish, to taste.
• In a small bowl, mix eggs and water together to make an egg wash.
• Place flour in a shallow pan.
• Place the almondine breading in another shallow pan.
• Dredge each fish fillet through the flour, dusting off any excess, dip in egg wash; place in breading, coating both sides of fish. If you aren't going to fry these right away, store them in the refrigerator at this point.
• Preheat saute pan using medium heat.
• Add the butter and melt, being careful not to burn.
• Place fish in hot butter and cook on each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side, which is an average time. Depending on how thick your fish is, you may need to either shorten or lengthen the time.
• Optional: Sprinkle chopped parsley on top of the fish before serving.
