Ingredients
- 4 pieces sea bass fillets
- 120 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams cornstarch
- 240 milliliters unsweetened almond milk
- 1 whole egg
- 150 grams breadcrumbs
- 5 grams garlic powder
- 5 grams paprika
- 10 grams salt
- 5 grams black pepper
- 1 lemon lemon zest
- 500 milliliters vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Start by patting the sea bass fillets dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
Step 2
Set up three shallow bowls: one with 120 grams of all-purpose flour combined with 30 grams of cornstarch, another with 240 milliliters of unsweetened almond milk whisked with one egg, and the third with 150 grams of breadcrumbs mixed with 5 grams of garlic powder, 5 grams of paprika, 10 grams of salt, 5 grams of black pepper, and the zest of one lemon.
Step 3
Dredge each sea bass fillet in the flour and cornstarch mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, then shake off any excess.
Step 4
Next, dip the fillet into the almond milk and egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
Step 5
Finally, press the fillet into the seasoned breadcrumbs, coating it evenly and pressing firmly to adhere. Repeat the process for all fillets.
Step 6
In a large frying pan, heat 500 milliliters of vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 7
Carefully place the coated sea bass fillets in the hot oil, cooking for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Step 8
Transfer the cooked fillets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve immediately with your favorite dairy-free condiment or a slice of lemon.
