Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
- 0.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten.
Pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Dip each tilapia fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are well coated.
Then dredge the fillets in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the coating evenly.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Carefully place the coated tilapia fillets in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd them.
Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the fillets from the skillet and drain on paper towels if desired.
Serve the pan-fried tilapia with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
