INGREDIENTS:
  • 4 4 oz snapper fillets
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • ½ cup coconut flour
  • ¼ cup hemp hearts
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (black or white)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • Salad
  • 4 cups kale, shredded
  • 2 cups cucumber, peeled and chopped
  • ½ cup green peas
  • ¼ cup green onion, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons cold-pressed olive oil
  • A couple dashes each of sea salt and pepper
DIRECTIONS:
  1. Preheat oven to 400°. Set up two large plates and a bowl. In the first plate goes the coconut flour, in the bowl goes the eggs, whisked, in the second plate goes the almond flour, seeds and spices, all mixed thoroughly. Take the snapper fillets, making sure all the bones are removed and coat completely and evenly in the coconut flour, then dip them in the egg until fully coated then lastly dip them in the almond flour mixture. Place the coated fillets on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on thickness. Mine were quite thin so 15 minutes was enough.
  2. Place the kale in a large bowl with the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper and massage with hands a few times until the kale softens. Add in the cucumber, peas and green onion and toss to combine.
