25-Minute Meal

Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons butter, divided
  
• 4 Alaska Pollock fillets (4 to 6 ounces each), fresh, thawed or frozen
  
• Salt and black pepper
  
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  
• 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
  
• 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  
• 1 tablespoon snipped chives

Preparation
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Rinse any ice glaze from frozen fillets under cold water; pat dry with paper towel. Season fillets with salt and pepper; sauté fresh/thawed fillets 3 minutes per side, or frozen fillets 6 minutes per side, turning once. Cook just until fish is opaque throughout. Remove fillets from skillet; keep warm.

Wipe out pan, if necessary. Add walnuts to skillet; cook until walnuts are lightly toasted, shaking pan occasionally to prevent walnuts from burning. Add remaining ingredients and heat through. Spoon sauce over fish to serve.
