G15 Ryzen, Linux Fedora

I recently attempted to install fedora Linux on my g15 for use at uni but quite stupidly I've accidentally deleted the EFI partition while wiping the drive for the fedora install

I now can't get past the Dell logo on boot and have no option to boot into the bios

I've tried almost all of the usual fixes people suggest like draining the battery after disconnecting it and so forth but If anyone has any further ideas that would be great as nothing has worked so far

    It shouldn't matter what you wiped.

    If you have a valid UEFI-bootable USB flash drive, the OS will install.

    Sounds like you don't know what you are doing.
