ALMOND-TOPPED FISH

Almond-Topped Fish image

A co-worker gave me this recipe, but I didn't try it until recently. What a mistake it was to wait! It's easier than dipping, coating and frying-and the flavor is outstanding. Once you've tried this tender fish, you'll never go back to fried. -Heidi Kirsch, Waterloo, Iowa
