Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
4 green onions (finely sliced)
2/3 cup pistachios (shelled and chopped)
1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs
1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley (chopped)
1/4 cup parmesan (grated)

Method
For stuffing, heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a pan over medium heat and cook 4 green onions (finely sliced) for 2-3 minutes. Add 2/3 cup pistachios (shelled and chopped) and 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs and cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in ¼ cup flat-leaf parsley (chopped) and ¼ cup parmesan (grated). Season with salt and pepper, then cool. Fill cavities of 4 baby snappers (cleaned and scaled) with stuffing and secure with toothpicks. Cut 2 slits in both sides of each fish and brush both with melted butter. Cook each in a preheated grill pan for 1-2 minutes on each side, then finish in a 180C oven on a greased baking dish for 10-12 minutes or until fish is just cooked. Serve with lemon.
