The trick to making Crispy Oven Baked Fish and Chips!
Whats that secret? Pre browned panko crumbs! Simply dump those plain old panko crumbs in a hot skillet and 5 minutes later they are golden. This gives them a good head start so you don’t over cook your fish trying to get the crumbs brown.
Here is my second installment on the beauty of pre-browned Panko crumbs! I posted Panko Crusted Salmon and I am still in awe over what I can do with these things!
We used ONE SHEET PAN for the fish and the fries!
We gave the fries a 15 minute head start and left room on the sheet pan for the fish. We used a really hot oven. 450 degrees to make sure those fries get good and crispy.
While the fries are cooking set up your dredging station with 3 bowls (paper plates work great for the dry ingredients for a quick clean up).
It’s messy business…better take a sip of that chardy before you get started or you’ll muck up your wine glass. Get me started on how I hate a dirty wine glass…
Dip in FLOUR, EGG, PANKO. Set onto a nonstick surface like parchment or acrylic cutting board. By the time your done, your fries will be half way there!
You can try the wet hand, dry hand method…but I never get it right. Seems my left hand doesn’t know what my right hand is doing. Could explain a few things…
15 minutes later pull that hot sheet pan from the oven and add the panko crusted fish.
Back in the oven for a quick 12-15 minutes ( depending on the thickness of your fish) and ding fries and fish are done!
We serve this with out Greek Yogurt Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce! More skinniness! yay!
To easy, fast, fresh and healthy dinners!

Pin RecipeCrispy oven baked (not fried) fish and chips! The panko crumbs are lightly toasted before dredging to give them a head start and assure your fish is super brown and crispy every time! The fresh fries are cooked on the same pan as the fish...easy clean up!
- 2 pounds Cod, Halibut or Mahi thicker fish cuts work best
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups Panko crumbs toasted brown in a skillet
- Salt and Pepper
- 2 large russet potatoes, sliced for fries peel on or off
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
-
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
-
Heat skillet to medium high heat. Add panko crumbs to dry pan (no spray stick, oil or butter required). Toast for about 5 minutes until just lightly brown. Try not to over toast, it will finish in the oven
-
Wash potatoes and pat dry. Cut into french fry shapes and PAT DRY AGAIN. Dryer the potato, better the fry.

Cover large baking sheet with foil or parchment. Add one tablespoon vegetable oil to HALF of the sheet pan. Toss the dry fries in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, salt, pepper and paprika. Place in oven and set timer for 15 minutes.
-
While fries are baking: Slice fish into stripes or squares, keeping them the same size to ensure even baking. Pat dry, season with salt and pepper.

Using three separate bowls, add flour to one, eggs in second and browned crumbs into the third.
-
Dredge fish pieces in flour than egg then panko.

-
Serve with our Honey Mustard Greek Yogurt Dipping Sauce or your favorite tarter sauce.
Wow this turned out perfectly for our fish tacos …. brilliant recipe ????????
Thanks for posting. I was looking for a healthy “fried” fish recipe and this one delivered.
This was a great base recipe for me to start with. I added 2 tsp paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and 1 tsp chilli powder to the spice mix. I also substituted the flour and Panko crumbs with ground up rice Chex and gf rice flour to make it gluten free as I have celiacs. Didn’t toast the cereal. Fish came out golden brown, juicy and crispy. Thank you 🙂
I love this recipe so typical of UK, the probe once you travel to London and this delicious.
