Ingredients

12 ounces cooked red snapper, coarsely chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, stemmed, seeded and minced
3 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons ground almonds
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh bread crumbs
2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. With slightly moistened hands, form the mixture into 12 cakes, each about 1/2 inch thick.
Coat a large nonstick skillet lightly with oil. Heat over medium heat until hot. Add as many fish cakes as will comfortably fit in pan. Cook until nicely browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
