Almond Crusted Snapper and Soba Noodles with Brussels Sprouts
This evening, I had red snapper for the first time in ages. My inspiration for the snapper comes from a dish I ate years ago where the snapper was crusted with almonds. I loved the slightly sweet and nutty flavor the almonds added, so I put a spin on this dish by using almond meal instead of almonds and flour.
Though I do not have exact measurements, you want to dip your snapper fillets (already seasoned with salt and pepper) in egg and then lightly coat each fillet with the almond meal. Pan fry the fish in a little olive oil.
Meanwhile, cook the soba noodles in boiling water and roast brussels sprouts (cut into quarters) in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven with a little olive oil for roughly 15 minutes. Once the brussels sprouts are slightly browned and the noodles are cooked, combine the two. Add one tablespoon of soy sauce and one tablespoon of sesame oil to the noodles.
Enjoy!
Brussel sprouts are so under-used, aren’t they?
So true, and they taste delicious!
