Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces fresh fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 medium lemon
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 tablespoons olive oil or coconut oil
Instructions
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
In a shallow bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Crack the egg into a separate bowl and beat it lightly with a fork.
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice over the fish fillets, ensuring they are well coated with lemon juice.
Dip each fish fillet into the beaten egg, making sure it is completely covered.
Once coated with egg, press the fish fillet into the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating on both sides. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat olive oil or coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot but not smoking.
Place the coated fish fillets into the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the crust is golden brown and the fish is cooked through.
Remove the fish from the skillet and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve immediately, garnished with fresh lemon slices, if desired.
