One evening when my husband and I went out to dinner, he ordered a salmon dish that sounded interesting. It was wonderful. When I tried duplicating it at home, he said mine was as good as, if not better than, the original. That made my day!

SALMON WITH A MACADAMIA NUT CRUST



Salmon With a Macadamia Nut Crust image

This was made with Atlantic Salmon but I'm sure any kind salmon will do. Easy enough to make and serve over brown rice. To get the nut coating to be nice and crispy take the suggestion from mikekey and chop the nuts very fine also make sure the egg white is nice and frothy. Once you put the fish in the pan do not peek by lifting the fish up until it is nicely brown and crispy. Another suggestion, macadamia nuts are delicious but pricey so tonight I made this using wild Pacific salmon and finely chopped walnuts and it was good also.
