Crunchy Fish & Chips

By Addie

“Instead of deep-frying, Grandma baked the cod pieces and potatoes in the oven. ”

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon salt, divided
• 2 teaspoons dried thyme, divided
• 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 cup bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 4 cod fillets (about 6 ounces. each)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F. Cut each potato into 6 wedges. Combine the potatoes, oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon thyme and the pepper in a large bowl. Toss to coat. Place the seasoned potatoes on a 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes.


Meanwhile, combine the milk and remaining salt in a small bowl. Combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan and remaining thyme in a shallow dish. Dip the cod fillets in the milk, then press into the crumb mixture to coat.


Remove the baking pan from the oven. Add the fillets to the potatoes in the baking pan. Turn the potatoes. Bake until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the potatoes are tender, 13–18 minutes longer.
