From EatingWell: May/June 2009
Fish and chips are traditionally sold wrapped in paper to soak up all the grease—not a good sign. To cut the calories in half and reduce the fat, we coat the delicate fish in a crispy cornflake crust and then bake it along with sliced potatoes. Serve with: Coleslaw and malt vinegar or lemon wedges.
1st time, I didn't have Cajun spice so used a 'Steak and Fish' herb mix that I had. The second time I made up a Cajun style spice mix including Fennel seeds, paprika, cumin and coriander.
I use wholemeal flour, no added salt and added some crushed garlic and finely chopped onion to whole egg.
Yummy sandwich version in the 1600 calorie heart healthy meal plan {crispy fish sandwich with pineapple slaw} - I use this recipe for the fish.
This was a fabulous dinner and relatively fast . The fish was moist with a crisp crust, and it's versatile in that you can use whatever white fish and non-sugar cereal you have around. My children like french fries but not potatoes (go figure!), but they loved these oven-baked chips. This is definitely in my family's rotation.
My picky husband and kids loved this recipe. There were no left overs!
I had all the ingredients on hand when I was looking for a recipe. I had about 1/2 panko crumbs that I added to the cornflakes, just to use them up. The seasoning added just the right amount of "kick". I used olive oil for the fries. Will definitely make this recipe again. The fish would make a great sandwich, too. It was very crispy without being fried.
This was very good quick recipe. I had all the ingredients on hand so i went with it. I prob will make this again however I don't care for cornflakes too much so I will prob swap that out with panko and maybe add a little seasoning to that as well. didnt really taste the bayou while eating only after. Potatoes came out great crispy on the outside soft inside, added a pinch of salt.
