Lunch Fish Natchez Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pecans

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the pecans on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven for about 10-12 minutes until they are fragrant and lightly browned. Remove from the oven and set aside.

2. 2

   Prepare the Fish

   In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge the fish fillets in the flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

3. 3

   Cook the Fish

   In a large skillet, melt half of the butter over medium heat. Add the coated fish fillets and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and keep warm.

4. 4

   Make the Brown Meuniere Sauce

   In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and let it melt. Continue to cook the butter until it turns a nutty brown color, about 5 minutes. Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat, and stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley.

5. 5

   Serve

   Plate the fish fillets and drizzle the brown meuniere sauce over the top. Sprinkle with roasted pecans and serve immediately.
