Ingredients​

For the Fish:
  • 4 white fish fillets (such as cod or haddock)
  • 1 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
For the Chips:
  • 4 large russet potatoes or sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Optional Tartar Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon capers, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon pickles, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions​

  1. Preheat the Oven:Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Chips:
    • In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
    • Spread the potatoes in a single layer on one of the prepared baking sheets.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Prepare the Fish:
    • In a shallow dish, mix the whole wheat breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
    • Place the beaten eggs in another shallow dish, and the whole wheat flour in a third dish.
    • Dredge each fish fillet in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
    • Place the coated fish fillets on the second prepared baking sheet.
  4. Bake the Fish:
    • Bake the fish in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy. The internal temperature of the fish should reach 145°F (63°C).
  5. Prepare the Tartar Sauce (Optional):
    • In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, capers, pickles, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
  6. Serve:
    • Serve the baked fish fillets with the crispy potato wedges and a side of tartar sauce. Add a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.

Tips:​

  • For extra crispiness, you can spray the fish and chips with a bit of cooking spray before baking.
  • Sweet potatoes add a different flavor and more nutrients compared to regular potatoes.
  • You can add herbs like parsley or dill to the breadcrumb mixture for added flavor.

Hello! I think using panko breadcrumbs and baking the fish is a good idea. Swap regular potatoes with zucchini fries for a low-carb option. So tasty and healthy! 🥒🐠
