I have to knock'm off the counter before I'm finished getting dinner on the table when I make this!!! Macadamia Nut-Crusted Snapper With Mango Lime Butter
Yummy crusted fish with the best tasting sauce ever! From Beverly Gannon's General Store Cookbook. Posted for ZWT5. **Please note: I could not make Zaar take the ingredient of 2 tsp Sriracha (Thai Garlic Chile Paste). This should be added to the mayonnaise to season the fish. (Included in the directions, just not the ingredients!) I find this in the oriental isle at my grocery store.
In a saucepan, combine the mango, wine, sugar, ginger, and lime juice and simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes, until thick and syrupy. Add the cream, mix well, and remove from the heat. Pour into a blender and blend until smooth (or use an immersion blender). Return to the saucepan and simmer over low heat for 8 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly. Add the butter, a piece at a time, and stir until incorporated before adding the next piece. Be careful not to boil the sauce, or it will separate. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm. 2. 2
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. 3. 3
Place the nuts, panko and basil in a food processor and process until fine. Spread on a plate. In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise and Sriracha (chile paste)** not in ingredient list -- Zaar wouldn't accept it*** and mix well. Lightly season the fish with salt and pepper. Evenly spread a light coat of the chile mayonnaise on one side of each fish fillet. Coat the same side evenly with the nut coating. 4. 4
In an ovenproof saute pan or skillet, pour in just enough oil to coat the bottom and heat over medium heat. (Be careful not to heat the pan too hot or the macadamia nuts will burn). Add the fish, crust side down, and saute for 3 minutes, until golden brown. Turn the fish and place in the oven for 5 minutes, until cooked through and firm to the touch. 5. 5
Place the fillets on warmed individual places. Serve with the mango-lime butter.
