I've lost about 40 kgs of fat and gained a pretty fair amount of muscle with the mentioned combination, and that's why I recommend it.
First of all, I got into a ketogenic diet (the most well known is the Atkins diet but there are several others), which is a diet that restricts carbohydrate intake to practically zero and allows you to eat big amounts of fats and protein. For more information, google it or try to get "The Ketogenic Diet", by Lyle McDonald, it's pretty informative and complete.
At the very same time I started some cardio. In my case, I used to walk about 2 hours a day (still doing it 5 years latter), or to run my bicycle (now my bike is broken), but you could run or do whatever you're into, as far as you do at least half an hour per day and increase that until you reach an hour daily or more.
Then, once I lost a few pounds, I started Convict Conditioning, which is a program that allows you to train at home without equipment. Just now the results are starting to be quite noticeable for others, but for my they were way earlier, and I felt stronger and healthier quickly after I started.
This all comes from my personal experience and learning, I don't claim it's the best way to lose fat and gain muscle but it's a cheap one and it works. Of course, the fat lose can come quickly but the muscle gain takes a lot more. Don't be looking for shortcuts, it's better to give things the time they need as you learn to maintain a healthy body and mind in the process. Also, read a lot on this matters and inform yourself all you can, so you can discern the good advice from the shitty one and make the right choices.
Good luck, ask all you need.
