Ingredients

  • Fish fillets (white fish like tilapia or cod) - 200 grams
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Lime juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Cumin - 1 teaspoon
  • Paprika - 1 teaspoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Almond flour - 1/2 cup
  • Shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella) - 1 cup
  • Cabbage (shredded) - 1 cup
  • Avocado - 1 medium (for topping)
  • Fresh cilantro (for garnish) - a handful

Steps

  1. In a bowl, mix the olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
  2. Add the fish fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
  4. On a baking tray lined with parchment paper, place the marinated fish fillets and bake for 10-12 minutes or until cooked through and flaky.
  5. While the fish is baking, prepare the keto tortillas by mixing almond flour and shredded cheese in a bowl until well combined.
  6. In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, form small circles of the almond flour mixture and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
  7. Once the fish is done, assemble the tacos by placing pieces of fish on the keto tortillas, topping with shredded cabbage, slices of avocado, and fresh cilantro.
  8. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
