Ingredients

  • 4 pieces white fish fillets (such as cod or haddock)
  • 1 cup coconut flour
  • 0.5 cup almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 large egg
  • 0.5 cup heavy cream
  • 2 medium rutabaga, peeled and cut into fries
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cups oil for frying (such as avocado or canola oil)
  • 4 lemon wedges for serving

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) for the rutabaga chips.

Step 2

Peel and cut the rutabaga into fries and toss them with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for about 25 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Step 4

In a deep saucepan or deep fryer, heat the oil for frying to 350°F (175°C).

Step 5

In a shallow dish, mix together the coconut flour, almond flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Step 6

In another dish, whisk the egg and heavy cream together until well combined.

Step 7

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and lightly season with salt.

Step 8

Dip each fish fillet into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Step 9

Carefully lower each fillet into the hot oil and fry for 5-7 minutes, turning once, until the batter is golden brown and the fish is cooked through.

Step 10

Remove the fish from the oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.

Step 11

Serve the fish with the baked rutabaga chips and lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the fish.
