Instructions
Put the milk into a wide dish.
Put the flour and Creole Spices into another wide dish and stir to combine. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper, dip them into the milk, and dredge in the seasoned flour.
Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the fillets and cook on each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
Transfer the fish to a serving platter.
Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter to the same skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl the skillet over the heat so that the butter melts evenly and cook until the butter turns brownish, 5-7 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the almonds, and cook, stirring gently, until the nuts are toasty brown, about 3 minutes.
Add the lemon juice, parsley, and a dash of salt.
Spoon the browned butter and almonds over the fish and serve.
