  • Choose thick fish fillets. This will help the fish sticks stay together during cooking.
  • Cut the fish fillets into even-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper before coating them. This will help enhance their flavor.
  • Use a light hand when coating the fish fillets in coconut crumbs. You don't want the coating to be too thick, or it will overpower the flavor of the fish.
  • Bake the fish sticks at a high temperature. This will help them get crispy on the outside and cooked through on the inside.
  • Serve the fish sticks with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include tartar sauce, honey mustard, and ranch dressing.
