lol, there is only a certain amount of breading that will actually stick
to a piece of fish or other animal protein. I think you might be
over-estimating just how much of the breading you will actually use. I
would go for the crumbs of low carb bread. A very little amount of oil
just layering the bottom of a pan (preheat oil in the oven, pop in the
fish, turn once. Fish cooks so quickly in an oven, no need for deep
frying. Dip in egg, shake the egg off a little, lay one side on a thin
bed of crumbs, turn over and you are ready
Perhaps graham crackers
crushed would work too, we don't get them here so I can't really
comment.

Hi Alice,
Thank you!
Unfortunately I can not. At 53 carbs per cup, chickpea flour blows
my 15 carb per meal limit.

I have heard that walnut powder will substitute. Do you have
any experience with such?
