Ingredients
- 2 pieces, about 4 oz each Cod fillets
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 4 large Lettuce leaves
- 0.5 cup Paleo mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dill pickle, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
Directions
Step 1
1. Start by preparing the tartar sauce. In a small bowl, combine the Paleo mayonnaise, finely chopped dill pickle, lemon juice, and chopped fresh dill. Mix until well incorporated and refrigerate until ready to use.
Step 2
2. Dry the cod fillets with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 3
3. Create a dredging station by placing the almond flour in a shallow dish. In another bowl, beat the egg and mix in the Dijon mustard.
Step 4
4. Dip each cod fillet into the beaten egg mixture, making sure it's completely coated. Then dip the fish into the almond flour, pressing gently to adhere to the surface.
Step 5
5. Heat the coconut oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the almond flour-coated cod fillets in the skillet.
Step 6
6. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and the fish is cooked through. The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
Step 7
7. Assemble the Paleo Filet-O-Fish by placing each cod fillet in a large lettuce leaf.
Step 8
8. Spoon the homemade tartar sauce over the fish, then top with another lettuce leaf to create a wrap.
Step 9
9. Serve immediately and enjoy this wholesome, grain-free version of the classic sandwich.
