[Wizard]

An easy dish to prepare and make. It is also one of my most asked for recipes by my guests. Total time is about 20 minutes. 10 minutes preparation; 10 minutes cooking and serving

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
Butter to cook with

Preparation

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.
