Fried Fish Fillets
- 1 lb Fish Fillets thawed
- 1/4 cup Coconut Flour
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1/2 tsp. Lemon Pepper Seasoning
Dijon Mustard Sauce
- 1/4 cup Sour Cream
- 1 Tbsp. Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 Tbsp. Dijon Mustard
- 1/2 Tbsp. Chives dried
In a small, rectangular container, add coconut flour, parmesan cheese and lemon pepper seasoning. Stir well to combine.
Spray both sides of fish with cooking spray. Then add to parmesan mixture and coat both sides. Use fingers to press parmesan mixture into fish if necessary.
Add to air fryer basket and cook at 400 degrees for 10 minutes or until the fish flakes easily. I stop the air fryer halfway through cooking time to flip the fish.
Dijon Mustard Sauce
In small saucepan over medium heat, add sour cream, heavy whipping cream, dijon and chives. Stir to combine and heat through but do not let it boil.
Spoon mustard sauce over cooked fish and serve immediately.
If you do not have an air fryer, you can broil these in the oven for 4-6 minutes. Be sure to flip them halfway through. They are done when they flake easily with a fork.
If you are not concerned with keeping it low carb, use all-purpose flour in place of the coconut flour and milk in place of the heavy whipping cream.
