Ingredients
- 400 grams white fish fillets (such as cod or haddock)
- 50 grams almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 30 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a food processor, pulse the white fish fillets until they are finely chopped and almost paste-like.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced fish, almond flour, egg, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, minced garlic, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 4
Using your hands, form the mixture into small meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Brush the meatballs lightly with olive oil to help them brown nicely while baking.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the meatballs are firm and lightly golden on the outside.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Step 8
Serve the meatballs with a keto-friendly dipping sauce or alongside a green salad for a complete meal.
