Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
  • 0 Olive oil cooking spray
  • 4 pieces Lemon wedges, for serving

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, parsley, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest. Mix until well blended.

Step 3

In a separate shallow bowl, beat the eggs until slightly frothy.

Step 4

Dip each fish fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated.

Step 5

Next, place the egg-coated fillet into the almond flour mixture, pressing down slightly to ensure the herb crust adheres evenly on all sides.

Step 6

Place the crusted fish fillets onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching to allow even cooking.

Step 7

Lightly spray the tops of the fillets with olive oil cooking spray for an extra crispy finish.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fillets are cooked through and the crust is golden brown. The fish should flake easily with a fork.

Step 9

Serve the herb-crusted fish fillets immediately with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
