• 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
• 2/3 cup beer

1. Preheat oven to 450u0b0.
2. Coat the bottom of a jelly roll pan with oil.
3. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, pepper, and garlic salt in a large bowl. Add beer; stir well. Beat egg whites with a mixer at high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold egg white mixture into flour mixture.
4. Combine breadcrumbs and parsley in a shallow dish. Working with one fish strip at a time, dip in flour mixture; dredge in breadcrumb mixture. Repeat procedure with remaining strips, flour mixture, and breadcrumb mixture. Place on prepared baking sheet. Lightly coat strips with cooking spray.
