Ingredients
- 1 pound white fish fillets (cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup avocado oil
- 1 lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Cut the white fish fillets into bite-sized pieces and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper; mix well.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until fully combined.
Step 4
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should cover the bottom by about 0.5 inches.
Step 5
Dredge each piece of fish first in the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then coat thoroughly with the almond flour mixture.
Step 6
Once the oil is hot but not smoking, carefully place a few fish pieces into the skillet. Ensure not to overcrowd the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
Step 7
Fry the fish pieces for about 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Step 8
Remove the fried fish pieces and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 9
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
