2 tb slivered almonds
1 1/4 lb sole fillets

2 tsp olive oil
1/8 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/2 c dry white wine

Place the almonds in a small skillet and put on medium heat. Set the timer for 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let the nuts continue to toast in the hot pan; stir occasionally. Dredge the sole in the flour. In a large nonstick skillet heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium heat until hot. Cook half of the fish about 2 minutes per side, or until done. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan and keep warm while repeating with the remaining teaspoon oil and fish. 3. Add the wine to the pan and boil until reduced by half. Add the lemon juice, capers and butter, stirring until the butter has melted. Pour over the fish and garnish with the almonds.
