Crispy Homemade Fish Sticks Recipe image

Easy homemade fish sticks that are perfectly tender on the inside, crispy on the outside. And you'll love how flavorful they are, thanks to a little seasoning and the Parmesan crust! You can make these with a white firm fish or even with salmon for a little more Omega-3! Be sure to watch my video.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 lb firm fish fillet such as salmon, skin removed (You can use a firm white fish fillet like cod)
Salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp sweet paprika
1/2 cup flour (all-purpose, whole wheat or gluten free flour)
1 egg, beaten with 1 tbsp water (egg wash)
1/2 cup bread crumbs
1/2 cup Parmesan
Extra virgin olive oil (I used Private Reserve Greek EVOO)
Zest of 1 lemon and juice of 1/2 lemon to finish
Parsley for garnish
Tahini sauce or Tzatziki sauce

Steps:

  • Heat your oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Pat fish fillet dry and season with kosher salt on both sides. Cut the fish fillet into pieces or sticks (1 to 1 1/2-inch thick and about 3-inch long).
  • In a small bowl, combine black pepper, dried oregano, and paprika. Season fish sticks on both sides with the spice mixture.
  • Make a dredging station. Place flour in a shallow dish. Place the egg wash in a deeper dish or bowl next to the flour dish. And in another dish, combine the bread crumbs, grated Parmesan and lemon zest. Place next to the dish with the egg wash.
  • Now coat the fish. Take a fish stick and dip it in the flour to coat both sides; shake excess flour off. Then dip the fish stick in the egg wash, and then in the bread crumb and Parmesan mixture. Pat to help the coating adhere to the fish stick. Repeat until all the fish sticks have been coated.
  • Arrange coated fish sticks on an oiled baking sheet. Brush the tops of the fish sticks with a little extra virgin olive oil (you'll want to basically dab the salmon fish sticks with the oil so that you don't end up removing the coating).
  • Place the baking sheet on the middle rack of the heated oven. Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes. If the fish sticks need more color still, place them under the broiler very briefly (watch carefully) until fish sticks gain a nice golden brown color.
  • Finish with lemon zest and fresh lemon juice. Garnish with parsley.
  • Serve with your favorite sauce for dipping. I used tahini sauce here, but tzatziki sauce would be great as well. Add a big salad and call it dinner (I especially like Mediterranean white bean salad or Greek salad with these salmon fish sticks

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 pound firm-flesh white fish, such as cod, sliced into sticks about 1 inch by 3 inches
1/2 cup whole grain pastry flour (or white whole wheat flour)
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
2 slices whole grain bread (or sub 1 cup whole grain breadcrumbs)
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (optional; if kids don't freak out)
1 large egg
Olive oil, in a spray bottle or mister (or nonstick vegetable spray)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Salt and pepper the fish sticks. Place the flour on a rimmed plate and season with the garlic, mixing with a fork, and set aside.
  • Place the bread and herbs (if using) in a food processor and pulse until uniform, but not too small. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the breadcrumbs to a shallow baking dish or rimmed plate and set aside.
  • Whisk the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a medium bowl. Dredge a piece of fish in the flour, gently shake off excess, and then dip the fish in the egg mixture, then the breadcrumbs, gently pressing into the crumbs. Repeat with the remaining pieces of fish.
  • Place a metal cooling rack on top of a baking sheet, and mist with olive oil. Place the fish sticks on the rack and bake until the fish is cooked through, about 12 minutes. (For even browning, you can turn the fish over halfway through cooking time and spray the second side with olive oil.)

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish. White fish, such as cod, haddock, or tilapia, are all good choices for fish sticks. They are mild in flavor and have a firm texture that holds up well to being battered and fried.
  • Make sure the fish is fresh. Fresh fish should have a mild, briny smell. Avoid fish that smells fishy or sour.
  • Cut the fish into even-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Make a flavorful batter. A good batter for fish sticks should be light and crispy. You can use a simple batter made with flour, eggs, and milk, or you can add other ingredients, such as herbs, spices, or cheese.
  • Fry the fish sticks in hot oil. This will help them cook quickly and evenly.
  • Serve the fish sticks with your favorite dipping sauce. Tartar sauce, ketchup, or ranch dressing are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Golden fish sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make seafood meal. They are perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a fun party appetizer. With a few simple tips, you can make the best fish sticks at home. So next time you are looking for a tasty and nutritious meal, give golden fish sticks a try!
