Preheat the oven to 200°F (90°C) to keep cooked fillets warm.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even distribution of spices.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels to ensure the coating sticks properly.
Dip each fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring both sides are covered.
Press each egg-coated fillet into the almond flour mixture, turning to coat both sides. Gently press the flour mixture onto the fish to ensure it adheres.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture begins to sizzle.
Place two fillets in the skillet, cooking until golden and crispy on one side, about 3-4 minutes. Flip carefully with a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer cooked fillets to a baking sheet and keep warm in the preheated oven while repeating with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and olive oil for the other two fillets.
Once all the fillets are cooked and in the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges for a bright, fresh finish.
