Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 cup Olive oil
  • 1 for serving Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Step 3

In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.

Step 4

Dip each fish fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's completely coated.

Step 5

Next, dredge the fillet in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure it adheres to the fish.

Step 6

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Once the oil is hot, add the fish fillets, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 8

Fry the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish is cooked through.

Step 9

Remove the cooked fish from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Serve the fried fish hot, garnished with lemon wedges on the side.
