Ingredients
4 trout fillets
8 teaspoons of flour
1 cup of slivered or chopped almonds
Amaretto (an Italian sweet liquor) You can also use Benedictine & Brandy

mix the flour and 1/2 cup of almonds together in a large shallow dish
Put enough Amaretto into another dish
put the fillets into the Amaretto till coated
dredge the coated fillets in the flour/nuts and press gently till coated
Cooking
Heat enough butter in a skillet to cover half the thickness of the fillets. Med/High heat is best
take the remains of the Amaretto you use for coating and pour into the heated butter
place the fillets into skillet: cooking time is 2-3 minutes a side
add the remaining 1/2 cup of nuts into the skillet to toast them.
Serve the fillets with the toasted nuts from the skillet on top. Spoon some of the sauce over the fillet.
