  • You may need to move the oven rack so it is 5 to 6 inches below the broiler. Set the oven control to broil.
  • Sprinkle both sides of the fish steak with salt and pepper. Brush both sides with half of the margarine.
  • Place fish steak on the rack in the broiler pan. Broil with top of fish steak about 4 inches from heat 5 minutes. Brush with margarine.

  • Tip:
  • To roast almonds, place a single layer on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring at least once to ensure even roasting.
  • Almonds will continue to brown after being removed from the oven.
