Ingredients
- 4 pieces Sea bass fillets
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Begin by patting the sea bass fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the coating mixture.
Step 3
In a separate shallow bowl, beat the egg until the yolk and white are fully combined.
Step 4
Dip each sea bass fillet into the beaten egg, ensuring it's fully coated. Allow any excess egg to drip off.
Step 5
Next, coat the fillet in the almond flour mixture, pressing it gently to adhere the coating to the fish. Repeat with all fillets and set them aside.
Step 6
In a large skillet, heat coconut oil over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot before adding the fish to achieve a crispy crust.
Step 7
Carefully place the coated sea bass fillets into the hot skillet. Fry them in batches if necessary, to avoid overcrowding.
Step 8
Cook each fillet for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Step 9
Once cooked, transfer the sea bass to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 10
Serve the crispy fried sea bass with lemon wedges on the side. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top for added flavor before serving.
