Ingredients

• 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as cod, halibut, or tilapia)
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Fresh dill, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Fresh chives, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 wedges Lemon wedges for serving

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, chopped parsley, dill, chives, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 3

Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. Rub each fillet lightly with olive oil.

Step 4

Dredge each fillet in the herb-almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks to the fish.

Step 5

Place the coated fillets onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle any remaining olive oil over the top of the fillets.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the top is golden brown. The internal temperature of the fish should reach 145°F (63°C).

Step 7

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