Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
  • 0.5 cups Almond flour
  • 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder

  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 4 pieces Lemon wedges

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.

Step 3

Pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 4

Dip each tilapia fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are well coated.

Step 5

Then dredge the fillets in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the coating evenly.

Step 6

Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 7

Carefully place the coated tilapia fillets in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd them.

Step 8

Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Step 9

Remove the fillets from the skillet and drain on paper towels if desired.

Step 10

Serve the pan-fried tilapia with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
