    • Handful of roasted pecan halves or pieces
    • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
    • 2 tilapia fillets, skinned and boned
    • Juice from 1 Persian lime
    • Salt to sprinkle
    • Touch  of white pepper
    • 1/4 cup  plain fine bread crumbs
    • 1 small shallot, minced
    • 3 tablespoons butter

DIRECTIONS

1. In a small pan, warm the pecans in the butter until coated. Keep warm in the pan.

2. Saturate the tilapia fillets in the lime juice and sprinkle salt over.

3. Add a touch of white pepper to the bread crumbs and coat the fillets. Set aside.

4. In a shallow, non-stick skillet, cook the shallot in the butter over low heat until soft. Stir in the curry powder and coriander. Add the fillets, turning the heat to medium. Cook less than 1 minute, or until browned on one side. Turn fillets over and cook until browned on the other.
