Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 lbs white fish (such as cod), deboned and cut into 4 or 6 portions
- 42 g (1.5 oz or 3/4 cups) pork rinds, blended until breadcrumb consistency
- 39 g (6 tbsp) almond flour
- 28 g (1 oz or 1/3 cup) Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, grated
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
- 1 large egg, beaten with a small splash of water
- Optional: Lemon Herb Tartar Sauce and lemon wedges, to serve
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a wide dish or shallow bowl, combine pork rinds, almond flour, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, paprika, and black pepper.
- In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg with a splash of water until well-combined.
- Drench each fish fillet in the egg wash on both sides, then transfer to the dish with breading, pressing firmly and flipping until coated on both sides.
- Place each coated fillet on the prepared baking tray. If there's any remaining breading, sprinkle it over the fillets.
- Roast in the middle of the oven until the crust is golden and the internal temperature of the fish reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius), about 15-20 minutes.
- Serve warm with Lemon Herb Tartar Sauce and lemon wedges.
