Step 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and the garlic.

Step 3
Coat a salmon fillet with the egg mixture and turn to cover both sides.
Step 4
Dip the egg-coated salmon in the dry ingredients and turn to coat. Press down on the coating so that it sticks on. (Repeat with remaining fillets)
Step 5
Heat avocado oil over medium high heat in a large skillet. Gently place the salmon fillets in the skillet. If they don't sizzle, the skillet isnt hot enough. Be sure the fillets don't touch.
