Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • 1 Pound cod, skinless and filleted (or another white fish)
  • 2 Teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • ¼ Teaspoon salt
  • ¼ Teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup panko flakes
  • 4 Tablespoon parmesan
  • ½ Teaspoon onion powder
  • fresh parsley (as garnish)
  • 6 lemon wedges

Instructions

  • Set your oven to 425°. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Take your cod fillet out of packaging and pat dry. Lay out the fish and cut into strips. Sprinkle salt over fish. Let fish rest while you prep the breading.
  • Grab 3 bowls. (1) In the first bowl, mix together almond flour, salt, and pepper. (2) In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs. (3) And in the third bowl, pour the panko, parmesan and onion powder.
  • Take a piece of cod and dredge it in the bowl of flour mix, coating all sides. Then dip the piece fully in the egg mix. Finally, roll the piece around in the panko mix until fully coated. Transfer cod to baking sheet. Repeat until all the fish is coated.
  • Bake for 12-13 mins. Fish should be opaque (not clear) and internal temp should be 145°F.

Notes

  • Remember to pat cod fillets dry before seasoning to ensure a crispy finish.
  • Don't overcook cod or it will be tough, dry and chewy. Your fish is fully cooked when it hits an internal temp of 145°F and is opaque instead of clear. We recommend the Thermapen for checking your fish temp!
  • Serve with your favorite steamed green vegetable, like green beans, broccoli or roasted asparagus. You might consider a potato side, like a Microwave Baked Potato, or a side of veggies, like sliced cucumber, carrot sticks, or peeled celery sticks.
  • If you don't have panko bread crumbs, regular bread crumbs or crushed crackers will work but may not give you as much crunch as panko.
