- 3 ounces raw whole almonds, coarsely chopped
- 1 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, coarsely chopped

- Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high.
- Season fillets with 3/4 teaspoon salt, dividing evenly, and pepper.
- Gently place 2 fillets in skillet, skin side up.
- Reduce heat to medium, and cook until golden brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes.
