Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound white fish fillets
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 large egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 cup olive oil
- 8 small low-carb tortillas
- 2 cups cabbage, shredded
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 medium lime, juiced
- 0.25 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1 small jalapeño, finely chopped
- 1 medium avocado, sliced
Instructions
Cut the white fish fillets into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, mix together the almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs.
Dip each piece of fish into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat the fish in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to ensure adhesion.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the fish pieces and fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Remove the cooked fish from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In a bowl, combine shredded cabbage, mayonnaise, lime juice, chopped cilantro, and chopped jalapeño. Mix well to form a spicy slaw.
Warm the low-carb tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until pliable.
Assemble the tacos by placing fried fish pieces onto a tortilla, top with a generous amount of spicy slaw, and slices of avocado.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious keto-friendly fish tacos!
