Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces fish fillets (cod or haddock)
- 0.5 cup almond flour
- 1 cup crushed pork rinds
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 4 wedges lemon wedges
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, crushed pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix until well combined.
In another shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
Dip each fish fillet into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, then press into the almond flour mixture, coating all sides evenly.
Place the coated fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle or brush the tops of the fillets with olive oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake the fish for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
