Crispy Fish Sticks Recipes

PARMESAN FISH STICKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a sheet pan with the olive oil.
• Cut the fish fillets into 2 1/2-inch-long and 1-inch-wide strips.
• Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Set aside.
• Combine the breadcrumbs, parsley and butter with a fork in a separate shallow bowl. Add the Parmesan and stir to combine.
• Beat the eggs in a third bowl.
• Bread the fish by giving the strips a good coating of the seasoned flour. Tap off any excess. Dip in the beaten eggs until coated. Roll the egg-coated fish in the crumb mixture. If need be, press the breadcrumbs into the fish. Place on the oiled sheet pan.
• Bake for 10 minutes, then flip the fish sticks and continue cooking until the breading is deep golden and the fish is cooked through, about another 8 minutes.
• Serve with ketchup.

FISH STICKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Add panko breadcrumbs to a parchment lined large baking sheet and spread out in an even layer. Bake for 2 -3 minutes, then stir breadcrumbs and then bake for 2-3 minutes or until breadcrumbs are golden brown. (Watch them closely so they don't burn.) Immediately, remove breadcrumbs from the oven and the sheet. Add freshly grated parmesan cheese to the panko breadcrumbs.
• Season fish pieces with salt, pepper, paprika, onion, and garlic powder.
• Dip each fish stick in flour first, then egg mixture, and lastly breadcrumbs/parmesan mixture. Coat evenly, shake off excess. Set them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Repeat with all fish pieces.
• Bake fish sticks for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them rest for about 5 minutes. Serve with chopped fresh parsley, a drizzle of lemon juice and tartar sauce.

CRISPY PANKO FISH STICKS

Steps:

• Make the chili malt vinegar: Stir the malt vinegar and chili oil together in a small bowl. You can use the mix as a dip for fish sticks or French fries or also lightly brush it on freshly fried fish sticks.
• Heat the oil: Over medium heat, heat enough oil in a skillet to fill the the skillet about 1 1/2- to 2-inches deep. (I use about two cups of oil in my large skillet.) The oil doesn't need to completely cover the fish sticks. The oil is ready when you can add a few breadcrumbs and they sizzle immediately and float to the top.

CRISPY HOMEMADE FISH STICKS RECIPE

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

CRISPY FISH STICKS

Steps:

• Mix the first 4 ingredients in a shallow plate and set aside.
• Cut the tilapia fillets in long sticks with a width of about 1 inch. Marinate them in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Store meanwhile in the fridge. Then cover your cutting board with aluminum foil.
• Cut away the thick crusts of the bread. Then, tear the bread in coarse pieces and fill your food-processor or blender with it. Blend it to medium sized breadcrumbs.
• Toast your fresh breadcrumbs for 1-2 minutes at 400°F This is necessary to evaporate most of the water.for a better crunchy skin. Remove and let it cool of and toss it a bit with a fork. Dispose it in another shallow plate.
• Pour a sizable amount of cooking oil in a deep pan, and turn your stove on low heat. Break eggs and whisk in a bowl. Place your marinated fish in front of the board, the flour-mixture next to it. Then follow the eggs and ,the breadcrumbs and finally a bowl of water.
• Now the real deal begins! Lift a piece of fish with 2 forks and drop it into the flour-mix. Wallow the fish until fully covered and shake any excess flour off. Then transfer to the beaten eggs and do the same. At last, transfer to the plate with breadcrumbs and put away the forks in the bowl of water (dirty part in water). Use your hands to tumble and lightly press around the fish until thoroughly covered in the crumbs. Move the fish-stick to the cutting-board and wipe your forks clean with a piece of paper towel. Repeat likewise for the other fish-sticks.
• When done, turn up the heat of your stove to high. The sticks have to rest for about 15 minutes, to get the crust set (otherwise you'll end up with a disaster). So. meanwhile you could clean up the counter in advance.
• The easiest last step: deep-fry the fish-sticks in about 5 minutes to a nice golden-brown colour. Serve with your favourite sauce!
