The extra-crispy crust on this delish Almond-Crusted Trout with Dill gives the tender fish an extra crunch. The nutrient-dense dill (Vitamin A, and C, along with manganese, calcium, copper, zinc, and potassium) ensures a heart-healthy dish.

3 tablespoons whole-wheat panko (Japanese-style breadcrumbs)
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh dill, divided
1 tablespoon all-purpose or whole wheat flour
