Easy Oven-Fried Fish Sticks
Easy Oven-Fried Fish Sticks
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 pounds cod fillets
- 1 egg white
- 1 tablespoon prepared mustard (optional)
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon dry mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese (optional)
Directions
Cut cod fillets into equal “sticks.” In a shallow bowl, whisk together egg white, prepared mustard, and water with a fork until thoroughly blended. In another shallow bowl, mix together bread crumbs, dry mustard, and pepper. Coat a baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray. Dip fish sticks into egg white/mustard mixture and coat on all sides, then dredge in seasoned bread crumbs, coating evenly. Place on prepared baking sheet and bake in a 450 degrees Fahrenheit oven for 6 minutes. Turn sticks over and continue baking for 4 minutes. Remove sticks to a serving platter. Quickly sprinkle cheddar over tops of fish sticks and serve immediately, with lemon wedge, if desired.
