Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish filets (cod, tilapia, or haddock)
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup olive oil or avocado oil
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Instructions
Rinse the fish filets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure an even seasoning.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and unsweetened almond milk until smooth.
Dip each fish filet first into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, and then into the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating to the fish.
Heat olive oil or avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Ensure the oil is hot before placing the fish to achieve a crispy crust.
Carefully lay the coated fish filets in the skillet. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the crust is golden brown and the fish is cooked through. Thicker filets may require a bit more time.
Once cooked, transfer the filets to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the fish.
