Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs with a fork until blended.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Dip each fish fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are fully coated, allowing any excess to drip off.
Immediately dredge the egg-coated fish fillet in the almond flour mixture, pressing the mixture onto the fish to adhere well. Repeat for all fillets.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, carefully place the fillets into the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the crust is golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the fillets to the prepared baking sheet and finish baking in the preheated oven for another 5-7 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.
