Yield: 5 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons olive oil
  2. 2 pounds cod or haddock fillets
  3. 1 cup all-purpose flour
  4. 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  5. 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  6. 2 cups plain breadcrumbs
  7. 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
  8. 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
  9. 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  10. 3 large eggs
  11. Ketchup, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a sheet pan with the olive oil.
  2. Cut the fish fillets into 2 1/2-inch-long and 1-inch-wide strips.
  3. Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Set aside.
  4. Combine the breadcrumbs, parsley and butter with a fork in a separate shallow bowl. Add the Parmesan and stir to combine.
  5. Beat the eggs in a third bowl.
  6. Bread the fish by giving the strips a good coating of the seasoned flour. Tap off any excess. Dip in the beaten eggs until coated. Roll the egg-coated fish in the crumb mixture. If need be, press the breadcrumbs into the fish. Place on the oiled sheet pan.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes, then flip the fish sticks and continue cooking until the breading is deep golden and the fish is cooked through, about another 8 minutes.
  8. Serve with ketchup.

Mr. Ryan Norman
I love this recipe! Pretty easy…I just added some sprinkle parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, dried parsley salt and pepper along with the recipe ingredients to the bread crumb mixture… delicious! Will definitely be making this again!… thank you Rea Drummond ♥️
Anthony Huber
3 year old approved. I made these as a better alternative to cheap, store bought, minced meat fish sticks. He’s not a picky eater but is usually vocal about whether or not he likes something. This one is a winner.

Love this recipe! I have made this dozens of times. I wouldn’t change anything with the ingredients except for the dried parsley. I always seem to forget to have fresh on hand.

Made these last night, I won’t be making them again.   They were salty for my family and at 450 degrees they were brown on both sides before being flipped over.  I made them with cod and had I not turned the oven down, they would have been burnt.  Too much work for the end result.  Sorry!

Great weeknight meal! Quick and easy. I used frozen haddock filets, Panko breadcrumbs, dried parsley (didn’t have fresh) and I added some garlic powder to the breadcrumb mixture. Served with some Mac and cheese and tartar. Will definitely make again. I loved that it was lighter than the frozen ones.

Great recipe family loved them. But needed to use less bread crumbs. I used panko and had way too many leftover only needed a cup unless you have over 2 lbs
Sean Perry
Quite yummy and my grandkids love them
Nicole Little
So flavorful! I skipped the butter and it was still a hit. Way better than any boxed fish sticks.
Nicholas Evans
Do you freeze these before baking or after baking. I missed that part.

And once frozen how do you cook them?

Sorry fish does not go with ketchup. Must have tartar sauce.
