PANKO-CRUSTED FISH STICKS WITH HERB DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475, with racks in top and bottom third. Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil; set aside.
• Place egg in a wide shallow bowl; season with salt and pepper. In another bowl, combine panko, Old Bay, and oil. Dip tilapia into egg, shaking off excess, then into panko mixture, pressing to adhere. Place on prepared baking sheets.
• Bake until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating sheets from top to bottom halfway through. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, parsley, mustard, lemon juice, and horseradish; season with salt and pepper. Serve fish sticks with sauce and lemon wedges on the side.

PANKO-BREADED FISH STICKS

Steps:

• Place panko, flour, and eggs in three separate shallow dishes; season flour with salt and pepper.
• Fill a large skillet with enough oil to reach a depth of 1/4-inch; heat over medium-high heat. Working in batches, dredge fish in flour, shaking off any excess; dip into egg. Transfer fish to panko, covering fish completely and pressing lightly to adhere. Arrange fish in the pan in a single layer without crowding; fry until golden and cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; season with salt. Serve immediately.

CRISPY FISH STICKS

Steps:

• Place eggs, panko, and flour in 3 separate shallow medium bowls.
• Season fish with salt and pepper. Working in batches, dredge fish in flour, shaking off excess. Coat with egg, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Coat with panko, pressing to adhere. Transfer fish to a plate.
• Heat 1/2 cup oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches and adding 1/4 cup oil between batches, cook fish until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Transfer fish sticks to a paper towel-lined plate; season with salt.
• DO AHEAD: Fish sticks can be breaded 2 days ahead. Cover and chill, or freeze in resealable plastic bags up to 3 months. Fish sticks can be cooked from frozen (cooking time will be slightly longer).

CRISPY PANKO BREADED FISH STICKS

Steps:

• 1. Combine flour and 1 tbsp Sweet Heat Blend into a gallon sized ziptop bag. This will cut down the mess! Set aside.
• 2. Using paper towels, pat your fish to remove excess liquid. The drier you can get your fish, the better that breading will stick.
• 3. Cut each fillet into four pieces (16 total), dip in egg and then place three pieces at a time in Panko mixture bag. Seal bag shut and shake. Press the breading into the fish. Remove and place in a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Repeat with remaining fillets.
• 4. Heat oil and butter over medium-high heat in a non-stick frying pan until bubbling and hot.
• 5. Place the breaded fish sticks into pan fry until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pan. You may have to make two or three batches. Remove and place on paper towel-lined plate to absorb any extra oil. Sprinkle lightly with additional salt after you remove from pan (optional).
• 6. Serve with tartar sauce or sweet chili sauce depending on your preference. Enjoy!

PANKO-CRUSTED TILAPIA STICKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Slice tilapia filets into 1-inch wide x 3-inch long "sticks".
• Into a shallow, wide bowl, place panko, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Stir until thoroughly combined.
• In another shallow bowl, whisk egg. Then whisk in milk, ketchup, salt and pepper.
• Lightly coat a medium-sized baking pan with cooking spray.
• Dredge tilapia "sticks" in egg mixture, gently shake off excess liquid and drop into panko mixture. Pat mixture onto all sides of the fish and gently place onto baking pan, handling carefully as not to loose the coating.
• Bake for 5 minutes, rotate the baking pan (do not turn the fish sticks themselves) and return to the oven for another 2-3 minutes.
• Allow to cool slightly, serve and enjoy!

HOW TO MAKE PANKO BREADED FISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven and prepare a baking sheet. Turn the oven on to 425 °F (218 °C). Get out a baking sheet and lay a piece of parchment paper on it. Spray the parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
• Combine the seasoned panko mixture. Set a shallow bowl or plate on your work surface and measure ½ cup (30 g) of panko breadcrumbs into it. Add ½ teaspoon (1 g) of lemon zest, and ¼ teaspoon (1.5 g) of salt. Use your fingers to stir the mixture until the seasonings are combined with the panko. Set the mixture aside.
• Season the fish and dip them in beaten egg. Get out another shallow plate or bowl and crack 1 egg into it. Beat the egg with a fork. Sprinkle 2 fish fillets with salt and pepper according to your taste and dip the fish in the beaten egg. You can use your favorite fish for this recipe. Try salmon, cod, halibut, mahi mahi, or rockfish.
• Roll the fish in the seasoned panko mixture. Lift the fish fillets out of the egg and let the excess egg drip off. Lay the fish in the seasoned panko and roll the fillets gently. The panko should stick to the sides of the fish.
• Bake the panko crusted fish for 14 to 16 minutes. Lay the fish in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Put the fish in the preheated oven and bake the fillets for 14 to 16 minutes. The fish should flake easily when you run a fork across the top.
• Serve the panko crusted fish. Remove the fish from the oven and sprinkle a little fresh parsley over the top. Consider serving the fish with steamed vegetables and rice. Garnish the fish with slices or wedges of fresh lemon on the side. While you can store the cooked fish in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days, it will become soggy as it's stored.

BAKED PANKO-CRUSTED FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Heat the oven to 425 F.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper and then spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
• Cut the fish fillets into 6-ounce portions.
• Sprinkle both sides of the fish pieces with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

• Put the flour in another wide, shallow bowl.
• In a third bowl, whisk the eggs or egg substitute with the Cajun seasoning and mayonnaise.
• Dip the fish fillets in the plain flour, coating each piece thoroughly.
• Dip the flour-coated fillets in the egg mixture and then coat them with the panko crumb mixture, pressing lightly to help the crumbs adhere to the fish. Repeat with the remaining fish.
• Arrange the crumb-coated fish on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for about 16 to 20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. The time in the oven depends on thickness, so adjust for very thin or very thick fish fillets. Serve the baked fish fillets with the lemon wedges and tartar sauce or rémoulade sauce.

FISH STICKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Add panko breadcrumbs to a parchment lined large baking sheet and spread out in an even layer. Bake for 2 -3 minutes, then stir breadcrumbs and then bake for 2-3 minutes or until breadcrumbs are golden brown. (Watch them closely so they don't burn.) Immediately, remove breadcrumbs from the oven and the sheet. Add freshly grated parmesan cheese to the panko breadcrumbs.
• Season fish pieces with salt, pepper, paprika, onion, and garlic powder.
• Dip each fish stick in flour first, then egg mixture, and lastly breadcrumbs/parmesan mixture. Coat evenly, shake off excess. Set them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Repeat with all fish pieces.
