Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tbsp coconut flour
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 3 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 cup avocado oil
- 4 pieces lemon wedges
Instructions
Prepare the fish by patting the fillets dry with paper towels and sprinkling both sides with 1 teaspoon of salt to enhance the flavor.
In a shallow dish, combine almond flour, coconut flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, 2 teaspoons of salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and water until frothy to create an egg wash.
Dip each fish fillet into the egg wash, making sure to coat both sides, then immediately dredge the fish in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers and is hot but not smoking.
Carefully add the fish fillets to the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid crowding. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the coating is golden brown and the fish is cooked through.
Once done, transfer the fish to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the fried fish hot with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
Enjoy your Whole30 Classic Fried White Fish as a nutritious, tasty meal that complements a variety of side dishes!
