For the sauce: Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Add parsley, ground pecans, lemon juice, scallion, nutmeg, and hot pepper sauce. Simmer on low for 1 minute. Add pecan halves, tossing well with mixture. Turn off heat until ready to reheat and serve.

Grill fillets for 4 to 6 minutes or broil until fish is opaque. Serve each piece topped with pecan sauce.
