Low-Carb Oven Fried Fish Fillets Recipe
MM 17 Mar 2019 – used catfish nuggets from Kroge)r and they were great.

This recipe for Low-Carb Oven Fried Fish Fillets makes tender fillets that are baked instead of fried.
Ingredients

• .75 pound thick white fish such as cod (mine took closer to 20 for them to turn slightly brown
• 1/2 cup super fine almond flour
• 3/4 cup parmesan cheese shredded
• 1 clove garlic (I used garlic salt instead of garlic closes and sea salt)
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
• 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon fresh dill coarsely chopped
• 1 large egg white
• coconut oil spray

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400º Fahrenheit. Spray a baking sheet with coconut oil spray. Cut fish into 8 equal pieces, salt lightly and place on paper towels. Cover will a few paper towels and press to dry the fillets. Set aside.
2. (I didn't do this either – I put all ingredients in a zip lock bac and shook to cover) Place almond flour, parmesan cheese, garlic, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a food processor. Process until garlic is crushed and mixture is completely blended. Add fresh dill and pulse a few times to chop dill and distribute through out the mixture. Pour mixture into a bowl
   
   
3. After each piece is covered with egg white, dip in the almond parmesan mixture Spread on a pan sprayed with coconyt spray. ( I put all the ingredients in a zip lock bag and shook to cover.
4. Place fillets on the prepared cookie sheet. Be sure they do not touch. Add any leftover crumbs on top. Spray the tops of the fillets with coconut oil.
5. Bake in the center of the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until light golden brown. Serve immediately.

I love tortillas. Corn tortillas. Flour tortillas. They are delicious. I love tortillas! I miss tortillas. I love tacos. I love nachos.

We love the Keto pizza recipe I posted. So I made the pizza dough, divided it into 6 pieces, flattened them and baked them. I topped with lamburger, jalapeños and cheese. I am tortilla happy!

It seems that if you can satisfy the cravings, that' half the battle.

Still haven't found a substitute for brownies. I could eat a whole pan right out of the oven.

I love Tuna Salad of all kinds but the capers in this just makes it different enough to stand out. This is lunch today.

add more celery and onion. In mine I put closer to 1/2 cup of each. Also, in addition to everything in this recipe try adding 3/4 TBSP of red wine vinegar

Never thought about putting cottage cheese in tuna salad.... Going to have to give that a try.
