Pat the seabass fillets dry with paper towels, and season both sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix together grated parmesan cheese, almond flour, Italian seasoning, and paprika. Set aside.
Place the seabass fillets on a lined baking sheet.
Gently press the parmesan mixture on top of each fillet to form a crust.
Toss the trimmed asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and arrange them around the seabass on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender-crisp.
If desired, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to brown the parmesan crust.
