Author's Notes

If you don’t have pork rinds on hand, you can skip them and double up on the Parmesan cheese.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
In a skillet, heat ½-inch of Cooking Oil (as needed) over medium-high heat. If it starts to smoke, turn it down.
step 2
Pat the Frozen Cod Fillet (1 lb) dry with paper towels to remove any excess water.
step 3
In a small bowl, whisk the Eggs (2) and Mayonnaise (2 Tbsp) together.
step 4
In another bowl, combine the Almond Flour (1 cup), Grated Parmesan Cheese (1/2 cup), Pork Rinds (1.5 oz), Chili Powder (1/2 tsp), and Fresh Parsley (1/2 tsp). Season with Salt (to taste) and Freshly Ground Black Pepper (to taste).
step 5
Cut the fish into strips (“sticks”). Remove the skin if necessary.
step 6
Dip the fish strips into the egg mixture and then press into the dry mixture. Press firmly so that the breading sticks well on all sides.
step 7
Add 3 to 4 fish sticks at a time to the hot oil. When you add the fish sticks, the oil should begin to sizzle. Cook for 2 minutes per side, or until golden and crispy.
step 8
Transfer the finished fish sticks to a paper towel-lined plate, then repeat with remaining fish sticks.
step 9
Serve warm with Tartar Sauce (1/4 cup) on the side.
