Macadamia Crusted Barramundi
- 12 cup macadamia nuts
- 12 cup dried breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon parsley, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon chives, chopped
- 4 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 (170 g) barramundi fillets, skin removed
- Preheat oven to 200C
- Combine all ingredients for the crust in a food processor and pulse until a rough crust forms, the macadamia nuts should still be quite chunky.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper and reserve.
- Heat a large nonstick saute pan over medium high heat and add the olive oil to the pan.
- Season the fillets on both sides with salt and pepper and place in the pan flesh side down (side opposite where skin was) and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Using a thin flat spatula gently flip fish over and divide the crust evenly among the top of each fish in an even layer.
- Transfer entire pan to the oven and bake for 4 to 5 minutes or until the fish is just cooked through and the crust is light golden brown.
- Remove fish from oven and serve immediately with either a light salad or sauteed vegetables.
