Yummy! Perfectly crispy. I served it with a salad on the side. Highly recommend!
This is a great recipe but I added lemon juice in the mixture and it was a game changer!
Lemon juice? Really? I don’t know about that… Seems weird to me. But I’m glad you liked it!
I used coconut flour instead of almond flour… that was not a good idea, lol. Can’t get the taste right.
Ya know, i thought fried fish was not keto-friendly. But this recipe is legit!
Love how easy this is! Perfect for my low-carb diet. Will definitely make it again! 🐟🍽️
I’m glad you’re enjoying it! Keto recipes can be so easy and tasty. What do you like to serve with it? 😋
I think I did something wrong, it was more like fried goo than real fish. Halp!
Fish? In a keto? Sounds like a weird combo to me. I dunno..
This keto fried fish is sooooo good! I made it for dinner and my family loved it!
Yum! I’m gonna try this recipe for my family too! Hope it turns out great like yours! 😍
Not really a fan. The fish ended up a bit too dry for my taste.
