- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1 cup sliced almonds

- 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions
1
Season tilapia with salt, pepper and old bay.2
Dust with flour then dip into egg.3
Press almond slices into the fish.4
Heat butter and oil in an oven proof pan.5
Carefully (so not to lose any almonds) place fillets into hot pan brown for 1 minute and flip gentle (again so not to lose any almonds) squeeze half of the lemon on the fish and place in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes.6
Remove gently to a platter squeeze remaining lemon.7
Garnish with scallions and serve.

I tried this last night and it was pretty darn tasty! Since my husband and I are doing the low-carb thing, I substituted normal flour for soy flour. I really liked how the lemon soaked right into the breading. It was a delight to make and eat! The scallions were a nice way to top the dish and added to the flavors. This is a terrific dish I'll be making again

Yummy dinner! I cooked them in a pan in batches (my tilapia fillets are very thin so I cooked 5) and then transfered them to a baking pan. I drizzled what was left in the pan over them. I even forgot the lemon juice and it was excellent!

Had a bit of a problem getting the almonds to stay in/on the tilapia and a lot of them fell off in the pan. Is there a secret to this that I need to know. However it was very good.
