Ingredients 


1-1/2 pound cod fillet

5 garlic cloves

1/4 cup parsley, chopped


Lemon Juice Mix

5 tbsp fresh lemon juice

5 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp melted butter


For Coating

1/3 cup coconut flour

1 tsp agar agar

1 tsp ground coriander

3/4 tsp sweet paprika

3/4 tsp cumin

3/4 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Mix lemon juice, olive oil, and melted butter in a shallow bowl. Set aside

In another shallow bowl, mix coconut flour, spices, salt and pepper. 

Pat fish fillet dry. Dip fish in the lemon juice mixture then dip in the flour mixture. Shake off excess flour. Reserve the lemon juice mixture for later.

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat (watch the oil to be sure it is shimmering but not smoking). Add fish and sear on each side to give it some color, but do not fully cook (about a couple minutes on each side) Remove from heat.

To the remaining lemon juice mixture, add the minced garlic and mix. Drizzle all over the fish fillets.

Bake in the heated oven for until it begins to flake easily with a fork (10 minutes should do it, but begin checking earlier). Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley.
