Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the almond flour, chopped almonds, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and parsley.
In another shallow bowl, beat the egg and mix in the fresh lemon juice.
Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels to ensure optimal crust adhesion.
Dip each fillet first in the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then dredge it in the almond mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crust adheres well.
Place the crusted sole fillets on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the top of the fillets to promote browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until the fillets are cooked through and the crust is golden brown and crisp.
Serve immediately with a side of your favorite Paleo-friendly vegetables or salad.
