Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 Eggs
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil or olive oil
- 1 to serve Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing your fish fillets. Ensure they are thawed (if previously frozen) and pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir together well to make a uniform breading mixture.
Step 3
In another shallow bowl, crack the eggs and beat them lightly to create an egg wash.
Step 4
Dip each fish fillet into the egg wash, ensuring both sides are well-coated.
Step 5
Transfer the egg-coated fillet to the almond flour mixture, pressing down gently to adhere the breading to both sides of the fish.
Step 6
Heat the coconut oil or olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 7
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the breaded fish fillets in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and crispy, and the fish is cooked through.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the fish from the skillet and place on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the crispy breaded fish with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top before eating.
