Tender sole fillets are encrusted in a golden, flavorful crust of finely chopped macadamia nuts, Parmesan cheese, and panko breadcrumbs for the perfect balance of crunch and nuttiness.

Ready in just 25 minutes, this delicate and refined dish is a show-stopping yet easy-to-make option for dinner parties or weeknight meals. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for a bright, tangy finish that highlights the fishβs flaky texture and nutty crust. Perfect for seafood lovers looking for a dish thatβs both decadent and effortlessly elegant.
Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a shallow dish, combine the chopped macadamia nuts, grated Parmesan cheese, and panko breadcrumbs. Mix well to create a uniform crust mixture.
In another shallow dish, place the all-purpose flour.
In a third shallow dish, whisk the eggs with the milk until fully combined.
Dredge each sole fillet in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, and press it into the macadamia-Parmesan mixture to coat evenly on both sides. Repeat for all fillets and set them aside on a plate.
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is fully melted and starts to bubble gently.
Carefully place the coated fillets in the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish is cooked through. The fish should flake easily with a fork.
Transfer the cooked fillets to a serving plate. Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges on the side.
