Keto Air Fryer Breaded Fish
This Keto air fryer recipe is the best way to make perfectly golden breaded fish. Our Keto-friendly fish recipe uses sea bass fillets coated in a low carb breading of ground almonds, a hint of zesty lemon and aromatic dill. Once breaded, the fillets are simply air fried until crisp and golden. This is a great way to enjoy ‘breaded’ fish without the carbs!
Can I Use an Alternative Fish?
We have used skinless and boneless sea bass fillets to make our Keto air fryer fish recipe. If you would like to use an alternative fish, cod or haddock would be a great alternative. We have used two large sea bass fillets, cut into halves to give us four smaller portions. If you are using larger, thicker fish fillets you may need to adjust your breading ratios accordingly. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.
Can I Bake This in The Oven?
We have used an air fryer to create a crisp and golden outer crumb for our sea bass fillets. If you do not have an air fryer you may bake these in the oven. Simply follow the recipe as directed and preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an oven tray and arrange the fish on the tray. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and the crumb is golden.

Was a step up from what I normally make, found it a bit dry though. Also added more dill and sprinkled lemon juice on top afterwards

Depends on how finely you grind the almonds
