How to Make Macadamia Parmesan Sole

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a 10x15 inch rimmed baking pan in the oven to preheat.
  2. In a 9-10 inch bowl, whisk 2 large eggs until lightly beaten.
  3. On a piece of wax paper, combine 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour.
  4. Rinse 4 (4-6 ounce) sole fillets and pat completely dry with paper towels.
  5. Dip each sole fillet in the beaten egg, allowing excess to drip off. Then, dredge in the Parmesan-flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Place the coated fish in a single layer on a separate piece of wax paper.
  7. Remove the preheated baking pan from the oven.
  8. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter to the hot pan. Swirl to melt the butter.
  9. Carefully place the fish fillets in the hot pan, arranging them slightly apart.
  10. Tilt the pan to coat the fish with the oil-butter mixture.
  11. Evenly sprinkle 1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts over the fish.
  12. Bake uncovered for 7-10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  13. Using a wide spatula, carefully transfer the fish to a serving platter.
  14. Garnish with fresh watercress and lemon wedges.
