Pat dry the hake fillets with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine.
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Dip each hake fillet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated.
Transfer the egg-coated fillet to the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure an even coating on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the coated hake fillets to the skillet.
Fry each side for 4-5 minutes or until the coating is golden brown and the fish is cooked through, flipping once.
Remove the fried hake from the skillet and let it drain on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve the crispy fried hake with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
