'Fried' Fish with Potato Sticks

 Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 lbs. red potatoes, scrubbed
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
  • 2 tbsp. finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 4 (5 oz.) fish fillets
  • 4 lemon wedges
Makes 4 Servings (1 fish fillet & 1/4 of potatoes per serving)

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F. Spray 2 baking sheets with nonstick spray. 
  2. Cut potatoes into 1/2 x 2-inch stick; rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Spread in single layer on one of prepared baking sheets; spray with nonstick spray. Bake until potatoes until golden brown and crispy, about 30 minutes. Immediately sprinkles with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. 
  3. Meanwhile, lightly beat egg in pie plate. Mix together cornmeal, parsley, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of pepper on a sheet of wax paper. Dip fish, one fillet at a time, in egg, then coat with cornmeal mixture, pressing so it adheres.
  4. Place fish on remaining prepared baking sheet; lightly spray with nonstick spray. Bake until golden brown and just opaque in the center, about 12 minutes. Serve with potato sticks and lemon wedges. 
WW POINTS VALUE: 7 pts. 

Note: This recipe appears in the WW New Complete Cookbook. Fish and chips is a wonderful comfort meal when it's done right. The yellow cornmeal actually goes well on the fish with the parsley and the lemon wedges. The potatoes are also quite delicious with the fish as well. You can use any white fish fillet in this dish and the dish will be elegantly tasty. Don't forget to add your choice of vegetables to completely fill out your meal.
