Parmesan Fish Sticks
- 1 (18-ounce) skinless center-cut salmon fillet, about 9 by 4 inches
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 egg whites
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
- Olive oil, for pan and drizzling
- 1/3 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley or chives
- Preheat the oven to 450F.
- Rinse the salmon fillet and pat dry with paper towels.
- Cut the fish in half to make 2 fillets, each about 4 by 4 1/2 inches.
- Starting on the longer edge, slice each piece into 1/2-inch strips.
- Cut any very tall strips in half horizontally so all the pieces are about 1/2 by 1/2 by 4 1/2 inches.
- Place the flour in a medium bowl and season with the salt and pepper.
- Place the egg whites in another bowl and beat until frothy, about 30 seconds.
- Combine the Parmesan and bread crumbs in a third bowl.
- Coat the salmon pieces in the seasoned flour and pat to remove any excess.
- Dip the floured salmon in the egg whites and then into the bread-crumb mixture, gently pressing the mixture into the fish.
- Place the breaded salmon on a liberally oiled baking sheet and drizzle lightly with a bit more olive oil.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Mix the mayonnaise, yogurt, Dijon mustard, and parsley (or chives, if using) in a small bowl.
- Arrange the fish sticks on a serving platter and serve with the dipping sauce.
