  • 1 1/4 lb Fish fillet (halibut, cod, tilapia)
  • 1-2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 onion, minced
  • ½ cup white Welch's grape juice*
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup seafood or fish stock
  • Flour
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
  • 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
  • Salt to taste

Preparation

  1. In a bowl combine grape juice, lemon juice and fish stock. Set aside.
  2. In a skillet, heat oil and brown garlic and onion.
  3. Lightly flour the fish and add to skillet.
  4. Sprinkle one additional tablespoon of flour and cook until the down side
    of fish is browned.
  5. Turn fish over and add juice/fish stock mixture a little at a time.
  6. Let cook for sauce to thicken a little, then add peas. Continue cooking for
    a few more minutes.
  7. Transfer to serving platter. Sprinkle with minced parsley and garnish with
    almonds.
