Sole Almandine with Orange and Dill

Prep Time15 Minutes

Servings2

Cook Time16 Minutes

Ingredients

1/4 cup skin-on sliced almonds

1 Tbsp + 1 tsp butter

1 Tbsp + 1 tsp orange juice

4 small (about 80 to 90 gram each), or 2 large (about 150 to 160 grams each), sole fillets

salt and ground white pepper, to taste

1 tsp chopped fresh dill, or to taste (see Options)

dill sprigs and orange slices, for garnish (optional)

Directions

Place almonds in a non-stick skillet and set over medium heat. Cook almonds, swirling pan from time to time, until lightly toasted, about 4 to 5 minutes. Spoon into a bowl and set aside until needed.

Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a shallow baking pan with parchment paper. Lay sole fillets flat on a work surface and season with salt and pepper. Now loosely roll each fillet into a cylinder and set seam-side down in the baking pan.

Place butter and orange juice in a small bowl and zap in the microwave 20 to 30 seconds, or until butter is melted. (You could also achieve this by heating the butter and juice in a small pot set over medium heat.) Spoon the butter/juice mixture over the sole. Bake sole 12 to 14 minutes, or until cooked.

Set 1 or 2 pieces of sole on each of 2 dinner plates. Spoon some pan juices over each piece of sole, and then sprinkle with toasted almonds and chopped dill. Garnish each plate with orange slices and dill sprigs, if using, and serve.
