Ingredients

• 500 grams white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
• 100 grams almond flour
• 50 grams parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by patting the fish fillets dry with paper towels, then cut them into bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch in size.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the egg and lemon juice together until well combined.

Step 4

Dip each fish piece into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, and then coat it thoroughly with the almond flour mixture. Ensure each piece is well covered for maximum crispiness.

Step 5

Heat the olive oil or avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Once the oil is hot, carefully add the fish bites in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook them in batches if necessary.

Step 7

Fry the fish bites for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked fish bites to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve your low-carb crispy fish bites immediately, garnished with extra lemon wedges or a low-carb dipping sauce of your choice.
