Serves:: 4

ingredients

2 large eggs
³⁄₄ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 sole fillets (4 to 6 ounces each)
3 tablespoons salad oil
2 -3 tablespoons butter or 2 -3 tablespoons margarine
¹⁄₂ cup finely chopped roasted salted macadamia nut
watercress or parsley sprig
lemon, halves

directions

Put a 10- by 15-inch rimmed baking pan in oven as it preheats to 425 degrees F.
In a 9- or 10-inch-wide pan, beat eggs to blend. On a piece of wax paper, mix Parmesan cheese and flour. Rinse sole and pat dry. Dip in egg to coat, drain off excess, then coat fish in cheese mixture. Set fish in a single layer on wax paper.
Remove heated pan from oven; add oil and butter and swirl until butter is melted. Lay a piece of fish in pan; turn to coat with butter. Repeat with remaining fish, arranging pieces slightly apart in pan. Sprinkle fish evenly with macadamia nuts.
Bake, uncovered, in a 425-degree F. oven until fish is just opaque in thickest part (cut to test), 7 to 10 minutes. With a wide spatula, transfer fish to a platter. Garnish with watercress and lemon halves.

Originally rated on 5/21/09 - This recipe made it into my book#266453. 5+ stars!! We loved this recipe and it will go into my favorites file. It was so easy to prepare, too! I followed the recipe exactly, except I used flounder. The parmesan gives a slightly crispy coating and the roasted macadamia nuts really push the flavor and texture over-the-top. I had never bought roasted, salted macadamia nuts before. think they are much better than unroasted. Great fish recipe!! ~Made for ZWT5 Epicurean Queens~

This did not work out well for me. The short time in the oven did not produce a crispy fish, so I put it under the broiler for a few minutes to finish. This also needs more seasoning as it was rather bland. Will probably not make this again. Thanks.

Excellent! We really enjoyed this dish. I used sliced almonds, instead of macadamia nuts. My sole was thick so I cooked it a little longer. Otherwise I followed the directions as written. Thank you so much for sharing.

I was really surprised by the taste of this recipe...I expected a much stronger parmesan cheese flavor, but it was very subtle. The egg made the flour and parmesan mixture stick perfectly to the fish, and the melted butter and oil allowed the fish to soak up a wonderful buttery taste, while allowing it to be slightly crispy. The macadamia nuts were a perfect complement to the fish. I used tilapia, because thats what I had on hand. I enjoyed a nice Pinot Grigio with this fish. Thanks so much for posting. I will make this easy recipe again. Made for ZWT5 for the Saucy Senoritas.

CRIKEY!!!!! These are good. I used Tilapia fillets and even tho I left them to cook longer then they should of the fish stayed moist. The melted crispy Parm bottom and the cruncy nut topping was totally a delight. Definite keeper. Made for the Aus/NZ region for ZWT 5 for team Zaar Chow Hounds Added the stars I thought I had OPPS
