Instructions

  • The potato chips take longer to bake. Once they are in the oven prepare the fish.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Scrub potatoes under running water using a clean vegetable brush. Cut in half and then into 1⁄4 inch slices.
  • Combine potatoes, oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Stir so potatoes are covered with oil.
  • Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray and lay slices out in a single layer.
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Turn potatoes over and bake for 15 minutes more, for a total of 30 minutes.
  • Cut each fillet into two strips.
  • Place cornflakes in a plastic bag. Crush by rolling a glass over the bag.
  • Beat egg and water together in a bowl.
  • Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Put flour on a dish. Dip each strip into flour, then egg mixture, then cornflakes.
  • Place fish on the sheet and bake in over for 15 minutes until fish is 145°F or flakes easily with a fork.

  • For tartar sauce, stir together 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons pickle relish.
  • Line baking pans with foil for easy cleanup.
