Ingredients
4 Catfish fillets
2 cups Water
1/2 cup fresh Bread Crumbs
1/4 cup toasted Almonds, chopped
1/4 cup Green Pepper, chopped
4 Tbsp. fresh Lime Juice
4 Tbsp. Onion, chopped
2 Tbsp. Butter
1 Tbsp. Coriander OR Parsley, chopped

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Melt the butter in skillet, then add green pepper and 2 tablespoons onion. Saute until onion is transparent, then add almonds, bread crumbs, oregano, one tablespoon lime juice, coriander and salt. Cook until heated, mixing well.
