  3. Prepare a baking tray lined with aluminum foil and lightly greased.

Fish

  1. Preheat oven to 420ºF / 220ºC.

  4. Prepare 3 bowls. Put corn starch in the first one, beaten egg in the second one, and panko crumbs, garlic powder, salt and pepper in the third one.
  5. Dip a piece of fish in the corn starch, then in the egg, then finally in the panko mixture. Transfer to lined baking tray. Repeat for the rest of the fish.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Serve immediately with chips and your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can bake the chips and the fish together if you have two baking trays.
  • I used ling fillet but any white fish will work for this recipe.
  • This recipe does not store well and is best enjoyed immediately!
  • Serve this with your favorite dipping sauce. I made a healthy tar tar sauce with Greek yogurt, diced pickles, garlic powder, pepper and salt. But feel free to use whatever you like.
