Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the fish fillets into even-sized strips, approximately 2 cm wide.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
In another shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to incorporate the spices evenly.
Dip each fish strip into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
Next, coat the fish strip in the almond flour mixture, pressing lightly to ensure it adheres evenly.
Place the coated fish strips onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat the coating process for all fish strips.
Drizzle olive oil over the fish sticks to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the fish sticks are golden brown and cooked through, flipping them halfway through the baking time.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Serve the low carb crispy fish sticks with lemon wedges for added flavor.
