Ingredients
- 4 pieces grouper fillets
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 cup olive oil
- 1 lemon lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the grouper fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to blend the spices evenly.
Step 3
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs and add the unsweetened almond milk. Whisk the mixture until well combined.
Step 4
Set up a breading station by placing the grouper fillets, egg-almond milk mixture, and almond flour mixture in a line.
Step 5
Dip each fillet first into the egg mixture, ensuring it is completely covered, then press it into the almond flour mixture. Turn to coat all sides, pressing gently so the coating adheres.
Step 6
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot before adding the fish to ensure maximum crispiness.
Step 7
Carefully place the breaded grouper fillets in the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan; you may need to fry the fillets in batches.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the fillets from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve immediately, garnished with the chopped fresh parsley and lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
