Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 each Fresh fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 each Lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, chopped dill, lemon zest, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure the herbs and spices are evenly distributed.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until well combined.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This helps the coating adhere better.
Dip each fish fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are fully coated.
Transfer the fillet from the egg mixture into the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crust mixture adheres well on both sides. Repeat for each fillet.
Arrange the coated fillets on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the top of each crusted fish fillet to promote browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the fish is fully cooked and the crust is golden brown. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
Serve the herb-crusted fish hot, garnished with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy your delicious, keto-friendly meal!
