This is super-easy. I swear. And you can do it with any type of firm, white-flesh fish (which sounds gross, but really just means mahi mahi, halibut or sea bass - not dover sole, that would be too thin).
The Ingredients:
1-1 1/2 lb snapper, in filets
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/3 cup roasted, unsalted pistachios, chopped finely (I swear, I did not know until we made this that you can buy pistachios already shelled. Somehow that just seems dangerous.)
2 tbsp. freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 tbsp. minced flat-leaf parsley
1 tbsp. fresh thyme
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
1/4 cup milk
2 tbsp. butter, melted
sea salt
freshly ground pepper
lemon wedges
Preheat oven to 425 degrees and cover a shallow glass baking dish with tin foil, and spray with non-stick spray.
Combine bread crumbs, 1/4 cup pistachios, parmesan, parsley, thyme, mustard, salt and pepper in shallow dish and mix until well blended.
Place milk in a separate shallow dish and dip fish in milk. Roll fish in crumb mixture and place in prepared baking dish.
Drizzle melted butter over fish and sprinkle the remaining pistachios on top.
Bake at 425 for about 10-12 minutes (10 minutes for each 1" of fish). Fish will appear white and flakey when it's redy.
Remove to a part and serve garnished with fresh lemon wedges.
You could also make this pan fried or on the outdoor grill.
I took other notes about how to make this with chicken, but I think we'd had a bottle of wine each by this point, and so I cannot, for the life of me, read my handwriting. Sorry. Here's a picture of Ron, me and Anne. Drinking wine and not helping.
