1/2 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chopped toasted almonds
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray baking sheet with nonstick spray. Whisk cornmeal, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pinch of black pepper in small bowl. Dredge fish in cornmeal mixture and place on prepared sheet. Bake fish until just opaque in center, 10 to 13 minutes, depending on thickness of fillets.
