Time 30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

10 ounces sole fillets
2 large eggs
2 cups fresh fine bread crumbs
¾ cup all-purpose flour
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup oil for frying, or as needed
1 medium lemon, cut into wedges
2 tablespoons tartar sauce

Steps:

  • Cut fish fillets into long diagonal strips, each measuring about 3/4 inch wide.
  • Break eggs into a shallow dish and beat well with a fork. Place bread crumbs in another shallow dish. Put flour, salt, and pepper in a large zip-top bag.
  • Dip fish strips in egg, turning to coat well. Place on a plate and then shake a few at a time in the bag of seasoned flour. Dip in egg again and then in bread crumbs, turning to coat well. Place on a tray in a single layer, not touching, and let the coating set for at least 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1/2 inch oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry fish strips in batches (taking care not to overcrowd the pan) in the hot oil for about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes, turning once. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and repeat to fry remaining strips.
  • Serve with lemon wedges and tartar sauce.

CRISPY FISH FINGERS

Provided by Ellie Krieger

Categories     main-dish

Time 32m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 slices whole-wheat bread (1-ounce each)
Nonstick cooking spray
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound flounder fillets
2 eggs, beaten to mix
1/3 cup nonfat plain Greek-style yogurt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon snipped fresh chives
Pinch cayenne pepper, optional

Steps:

  • Put the bread in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until bread crumbs form. Toast the crumbs in a large, dry nonstick skillet over a medium-high heat, stirring frequently and breaking up the crumbs with a spoon if they begin to stick together, until crisp and golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Spray a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray. On a plate, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Cut the fillets into 4 by 1-inch strips. A few pieces at a time, dip the fish into the flour mixture, dusting off the excess. Dip the fish in the egg and then the bread crumbs. Arrange on the baking sheet and continue until all of the fish is breaded. Bake until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chives and cayenne, if using. Season, to taste, with freshly ground black pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish. White-fleshed fish with a mild flavor, such as cod, haddock, or tilapia, work best for fish fingers.
  • Cut the fish into even-sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season the fish. A simple seasoning of salt and pepper is all you need.
  • Coat the fish in flour. This will help the breading adhere to the fish.
  • Dip the fish in egg. This will help the breading stay on the fish.
  • Coat the fish in bread crumbs. You can use any type of bread crumbs, but panko bread crumbs will give you a crispy coating.
  • Fry the fish fingers. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Fry the fish fingers for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve the fish fingers. Serve the fish fingers with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce, ketchup, or honey mustard.

Conclusion:

Crispy spiced fish fingers are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a quick weeknight meal or for a party. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your fish fingers are crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection.
