Chatting recently with my dear friend Tonya Primus, I lamented yet again that I was running out of ideas for something fresh and new to try for dinner. She shared with me this easy and delicious recipe for heavenly fish sticks that is just out of this world. Perfectly crunchy on the outside – flaky and juicy on the inside. She paired this with a fresh and tangy dipping sauce that will send everyone begging for more. So yummy, I snuck into the kitchen when everyone was fast asleep to enjoy another crunchy morsel … privately …
Tonya’s Crispy Fish Sticks (4 servings)
1 lb. of organic salmon
2 lg. organic eggs beaten
1 c. of whole wheat flour
1/2 c. of Panko breadcrumbs
1/2 c. Italian breadcrumbs
1/4 c. parmesan cheese
kosher salt to taste
fresh ground pepper to taste
1/4 c. olive oil
Select a nice piece of salmon and have your fishmonger skin it and slice it into even slabs. Pour the flour into a shallow dish and set aside. Combine Panko, Italian breadcrumbs, and parmesan cheese in a shallow pan and also set aside ( I am sure adding cheese is breaking all sorts of culinary rules, but que sera sera! )
Salt and pepper the fish to taste. Dip each piece into the beaten eggs, then dredge in the flour, and dip again in the egg mixture. Dredge each piece for a second time in the Panko mixture.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and add the coated fish into the pan and sear on each side until just golden.
Tangy Mango Dressing
1 tbs homemade mayonnaise
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 tbs mango yogurt
1 tsp cilantro
Mix all four ingredients together and voila!

Sounds like I need to try this out for a late afternoon meal with the hubby.
This looks very light but filling.
Yeah sounds and looks very light, one of those which can just melt in your mouth. i think it’s one of those meal where you have a self debate on rather or not you should leave the last piece, and at the end you like no no not letting that goes!!
