This recipe solves the unhealthy dilemma of frying by baking these family favorites instead. The crunchy texture and fresh taste will leave a smile on your face long after your plate is empty.
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 pound cod fillets, partially thawed
1/2 cup almond meal, divided
2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 cup 1% buttermilk
Instructions:
1. Cut fillets into 3/4-inch strips; set aside. In a shallow bowl, combine ¼ cup of the almond meal, parmesan cheese, parsley, lemon peel, paprika, thyme and garlic salt. Place buttermilk in another shallow bowl and the remaining almond meal in a third bowl.
2. Coat fish strips with plain almond meal; dip into buttermilk, then coat with seasoned almond meal mixture. Place on a baking sheet lightly sprayed with peanut oil. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
3. Bake at 425 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Let stand for 2 minutes before removing from baking sheet.
