Easy Paleo Fried Fish Sticks

Calories 1582 kcal

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb Trout (or other white fish)
  • 2 in Eggs (whiskeda bowl)
  • 2 c Almond flour (seasoned to taste with onion powder garlic powder, salt and pepper, or your favorite paleo approved spice)
  • 1.5 c Coconut oil (for frying)

Instructions

  1. Crack 2 eggs into a bowl, and gently whisk until they combine.
  2. Put almond flour into a shallow dish or bowl, and mix in seasonings such as onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper, or your favorite paleo approved spice to taste.
  3. Add coconut oil to a pan and heat on high.
  4. Cut your fish into 2 inch strips, dip them in egg batter, and dredge through the flour. Once covered, place the strips aside until it is time to add them to the coconut oil.
  5. Once the coconut oil has reached a HOT temperature (it will smell slightly smoky, and water will sizzle nicely if dripped into the pan), add several strips of fish so that they have enough room to cook evenly. Fry each side of the fish for about 2 minutes or until the flour has reached a golden brown color.
  6. Remove the fish sticks from the coconut oil, and place on a paper towel lined plate to cool.

Recipe Notes

If you season these correctly, you will find that you don’t need dipping sauce. However, if you’re a sauce fiend, check out this Paleo Tarter Sauce Recipe* from the Paleo Cupboard. Serve with fresh lemon or lime slices and a hearty veggie side or two.
