Fast and easy macadamia nut butter makes a delicious topping for mild fish such as sole, flounder, orange roughy, and tilapia.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 6 (about 1-1/2 pounds) medium-size mild fish fillets (such as sole, flounder, orange roughy)
  • 1 tablespoon oil (canola, safflower, corn, peanut)
  • Salt
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped macadamia nuts
  • 4 springs parsley, finely chopped, for garnish
  • 1 lemon, sliced, for garnish
  • 5 sprigs parsley, for garnish

Preparation:

Lightly rub fish fillets with oil and sprinkle with salt. Steam or fry. Remove to a warm serving platter.

Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the chopped macadamia nuts and cook over low heat until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Pour the macadamia nut and butter sauce over the fish fillets. Garnish the fillets with chopped parsley. Garnish the platter with overlapping lemon slices and parsley sprigs.

Yield: 6 servings
