Crusted Yellowtail Snapper

How to Prepare your Catch:

Yellowtail are among some of the most delicious fish that swim in the sea. Here is a simple, yet delicious recipe to enjoy the fruits of your labor. 

Ingredients

• 1 cup macadamia nuts
• 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 large egg
• 4 (6-ounce) yellowtail snapper or other firm white fish fillets
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
• Sliced green onions

Preparation

Pulse nuts in a food processor until finely ground. Add panko, and pulse until combined. Place mixture in a shallow bowl.

Place flour in a shallow dish. Whisk egg in a medium bowl. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour, shake off excess, and dip in egg. Dredge fish in nut mixture, coating completely.

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add 2 fillets; cook 3 minutes on each side or until golden. (If nuts brown too quickly, reduce heat.) Repeat with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and fish. Serve with rice and enjoy!
