Instructions: Score fish by making diagonal cuts along the sides with a sharp knife. Place fish in baking pan that will hold them in a single layer. Sprinkle cilantro and toasted almonds over fish.

Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; add lime juice and salt.

Pour over the fish.

Cover pan with foil and bake until just tender (25 to 30 minutes). Baking time will depend on the thickness of the fish, 10 minutes per inch of thickness.

When done, it will flake easily with a fork.

Note: To toast almonds, arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place in a preheated 300-degree oven for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure that nuts brown evenly.
