Ingredients
- 500 grams white fish fillets (cod, tilapia, or any firm white fish)
- 120 grams almond flour
- 50 grams parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 60 ml unsweetened almond milk
- 60 ml olive oil
- 1 whole lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
Cut the fish fillets into bite-sized pieces, ensuring each piece is of a uniform size for even cooking.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and almond milk until well combined.
Step 4
Dip each piece of fish into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off.
Step 5
Then dredge each fish piece in the almond flour mixture, pressing down to ensure a nice coating.
Step 6
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 7
Fry the fish pieces in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Remove fish and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the crispy fried fish pieces warm with lemon wedges on the side, if desired.
