Ultimate Crispy Fish with Golden Chips Recipe

Ingredients

• A spray to prevent sticking in the pan
• A portion of fat-free Greek yogurt without any flavoring
• Green onions cut into thin slices
• Freshly squeezed lime juice for a zesty touch
• Kosher salt, split into two portions, to season
• A sprinkle of black pepper, also divided, for a hint of spice
• A mixture of shredded coleslaw vegetables
• Sweet potatoes sliced into wedges of half an inch
• Two drizzles of olive oil, separate from each other
• Chili powder for a touch of heat
• Fresh or frozen fillets of whitefish, about four pieces, like haddock or cod, each one inch thick
• A beaten egg for coating
• A small amount of water to mix with the egg
• Crushed puffed corn cereal or corn flakes, measuring two and a half cups in total

Step 1

To begin, preheat your oven to a toasty 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Get a 10x15-inch baking pan ready by lining it with foil and giving it a light spray of nonstick cooking magic.

Step 2

In a spacious bowl, mix together the tangy yogurt, fresh green onions, zesty lime juice, a pinch of salt, and a dash of pepper. Add in the coleslaw and let it chill in the fridge for about an hour, allowing the flavors to mingle and dance.

Step 3

Next, lay out the sweet potatoes on the prepared pan, giving them a lovely drizzle of oil and a generous sprinkle of chili powder, salt, and a touch of pepper. Toss them around to ensure they are coated evenly, then pop them in the preheated oven. Let them roast until they are tender and beautifully browned, typically around 20 to 25 minutes.

Step 4

Give your fish a quick rinse and a gentle pat dry with a paper towel. In a shallow dish, whisk together an egg and a splash of water. In another dish, combine the cereal crumbs, a bit of salt, and a hint of pepper. Dip each fillet first in the egg mixture, then in the crunchy cereal coating, making sure to coat them thoroughly.

Step 5

In an oven-safe skillet, heat up a bit of oil over medium-high heat. Add the fish fillets and cook them until they achieve a delightful golden hue, usually around 3 minutes. Flip them over gently and then transfer the skillet into the oven. Let the fish bake until it flakes easily with a fork, which typically takes around 15 minutes.

Step 6

Serve the deliciously baked fish alongside the roasted sweet potatoes and the chilled slaw for a delightful meal that is sure to please your taste buds. Enjoy the scrumptious combination of flavors and textures!
