Instructions
1. Season the halibut fillets with salt and pepper. In a shallow dish, combine the chopped almonds and flour. Place the beaten egg in another dish. 2. Dip each fillet into the egg, shaking off excess, and then press each side into the almond mixture to coat evenly. 3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for a fresh, zesty finish.
