BONNIE'S CRISPY OVEN-FRIED COD FISH
I found this recipe on the web by Kittencalskitchen, tweaking it to suit our tastes. I love the simplicity of this cooking method, and it is a definite keeper in this house. This is very crispy fish without deep frying, no mushiness either. For oven-fried fish, this is as good as it gets. I make it in a cast iron skillet....

Steps:
- 1. Pre-heat oven to 475 degrees and set the oven rack to second-lowest position.
- 2. Mix the cornmeal, bread crumbs, and seasonings in the first shallow bowl. Beat the eggs in the second shallow bowl. Add one piece of fish to the DRY bowl, coat well and remove and dip the fish in the WET bowl. Return to the DRY bowl and coat again. Do this with all the fish pieces. It is a 3-step process: dry, wet, finishing with dry. Transfer all breaded fish to a plate.
- 3. Heat the oil in a large cast iron skillet, or any oven-proof skillet. Cast iron just browns better. Fry the underside of the fish until it is brown 1 or 2 minutes, then turn and fry the other side. When all of the pieces are browned, put the skillet and the fish in the hot oven. Bake about 5 or 6 minutes until just cooked through.
- 4. Here is what it looks like. Serve immediately.
- 5. I have an excellent recipe for tartar sauce posted on this site. https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/utahn/tartar-sauce/spread
- 6. Cook's tip: Pie plates make great shallow breading dishes. Next time I plan on using white cornmeal. I fry a lot of catfish using white cornmeal, and we prefer it over the yellow. It is not as coarse. I will let you know what happens when I do. Enjoy!

HEART-HEALTHY OVEN "FRIED" FISH
This recipe came from a "heart-healthy" class that my wife and I attended a few years back. The recipe was offered by professional dietitians who didn't seem too radical in their approach to cooking. In other words, they didn't hesitate to add small amounts of herbs, spices, etc., which would make the dishes tasteful, such as the celery salt in this recipe. Enjoy this one!

CRISPY OVEN FRIED FISH
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay a wire rack on top, spraying it with non-stick spray. Add potato chips to a ziplock bag and crush them into fine pieces. Season the cod filets with just a touch of salt (not too much, the chips are salty) and black pepper. Dip each filet in the egg white (I use only egg white as I feel that whole eggs make the delicate fish taste too "eggy") then dredge through potato chips mixture, pressing so the chips stick. Lay on the wire rack and spray each filet with non-stick spray or olive oil. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until fish is golden brown.

Steps:
- 4 servings 2.Position racks in upper and lower third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Set a wire rack on another large baking sheet; coat with cooking spray. 3.Place potatoes in a colander. Thoroughly rinse with cold water, then pat dry completely with paper towels. Toss the potatoes, oil and 3/4 teaspoon Cajun (or Creole) seasoning in a large bowl. Spread on the baking sheet without the rack.

Coat both sides of the breaded fish with cooking spray. 5.Bake the fish on the upper oven rack until opaque in the center and the breading is golden brown and crisp, about 20 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right fish: For oven-fried fish, it's best to use a firm-fleshed fish that will hold up well to the cooking process. Some good options include tilapia, cod, haddock, and catfish.
- Use a light breading: A heavy breading will make the fish greasy and soggy. Instead, use a light breading made with flour, cornstarch, and spices.
- Preheat the oven: Before you start cooking the fish, preheat the oven to the desired temperature. This will help the fish cook evenly.
- Use a baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil to make cleanup easier. Spray the baking sheet with cooking spray to prevent the fish from sticking.
- Bake the fish: Bake the fish in the preheated oven until it is cooked through. The cooking time will vary depending on the type of fish and the thickness of the fillets.
- Serve immediately: Oven-fried fish is best served immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Oven-fried fish is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy fish. It's a great option for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make oven-fried fish that is crispy on the outside and tender and flaky on the inside.
