• 1/3cup almond/walnut meal (or add'l coconut flour)
• 2tsp salt
• 1 tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl blend dry ingredients together

3. Heat frying pan on med/high heat, melting oil
4. Coat fish with egg mixture then dredge with dry mix
5. Turn heat to medium/low
6. Fry fish on both sides (about 8-10min each side) using thongs to turn

Notes: Too high a heat will burn the breading (especially if you substitute coconut flour only breading for the nut meal).  Coconut breading will also be a much drier texture than the meal.
