Ingredients
- 4 pieces Perch fillets
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Avocado oil
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the perch fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, mix together the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until well combined.
Step 4
Dip each perch fillet into the beaten eggs, making sure it is fully coated, then dredge it in the almond flour mixture. Press gently to ensure the coating adheres to the fish.
Step 5
Heat the avocado oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer.
Step 6
Carefully place the coated perch fillets in the hot oil. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the crust turns golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Step 7
Remove the fillets from the pan and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Step 8
Garnish the fried perch with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the fish.
Step 9
Enjoy your keto-friendly crispy fried perch fillets with a side of salad or steamed vegetables.
