I have made fish almondine many times before, but this recipe was by far our favorite. It has to be the surprising addition of Worcestershire sauce that transforms this from the ordinary to the extraordinary. I used tilapia filets and they came out superb. It's a winner Evelyn...delicious, easy and quick to make. Thank you.

If there were any way to give this dish more than 5 stars, I would not hesitate. Very easy to make and will be making again.

Made this the other night...It was wonderful!! :) My oldest son ate most of it. I left out the almonds (we are not big almond fans) and I used a package of ranch in with the flour. Huge hit in my house. I am making it again tonight. Thank you so much for sharing and helping me to include fish in our diet.

This looks like a recipe I could make for hubby. He can eat just fins and feathers! Thanks for posting!

This was terrific, Ev! I used trout my DH had caught & made exactly as written. He's pretty fussy about his trout, always wants it cooked in butter & he liked the sauce as well. This was a winner for us & will be repeated. Thx for posting.
