Ingredients

• 2 pieces Grouper fillets
• 0.5 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 large Egg
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 pieces Iceberg or butter lettuce leaves
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed
• 1 cup Shredded cabbage
• 0.5 cup Shredded carrot

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In another shallow bowl, beat the egg.

Step 3

Pat the grouper fillets dry with paper towels.

Step 4

Dip each grouper fillet into the beaten egg, ensuring it’s well-coated, then dredge in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Once the oil is hot, add the coated grouper fillets. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 7

Remove the grouper fillets from the skillet and set aside.

Step 8

In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and celery seed to make the coleslaw dressing.

Step 9

In a separate bowl, toss together the shredded cabbage and carrot with the coleslaw dressing until well coated.

Step 10

To assemble the sandwich, place each crispy grouper fillet on a lettuce leaf, top with a generous scoop of keto coleslaw, and close with the second lettuce leaf as the top 'bun'.

Step 11

Serve the sandwiches immediately while the grouper is crispy and enjoy your keto-friendly meal.
