Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 1 for serving Lemon wedges
Instructions
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a shallow dish, combine the almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Dip each fish fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's completely coated.
Next, dredge the fillet in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure it adheres to the fish.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the fish fillets, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Fry the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish is cooked through.
Remove the cooked fish from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the fried fish hot, garnished with lemon wedges on the side.
