Lean Fish for Fish & Chips

No breadcrumbs or flour needed in this recipe. A skinny version of your regular fish & chips but still tasty. I'd recommend using cod or haddock.

Course: Main Course
Calories: 108

Ingredients
  

  • 225 gram Cod
Batter
  • 1 small whole Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon peel
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Parsley
  • 0.5 teaspoon Marjoram

Method
 

  1. Separate egg yolk and the egg white in a glass bowl.
  2. Mix spices, and lemon peel with the egg yolk to form a paste. Whip egg white by itself with an electric mixer until white peaks form, about 5 minutes.
  3. Carefully fold the egg yolk paste into the egg white. Dip each cod fillet in the egg mixture.
Pan
  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Spray lightly with non-stick spray and cook five minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
OR
    Oven
    1. Place cod with the side the skin was on down on an oven-safe dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 400 F for 15-20 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.

    Notes

    Do not count the entire batter in your calorie content, only count half towards the total nutrition. It makes about 46-gram batter, and only 22 grams coats the fillets. 
    Serve with Tartar sauce made with Greek yogurt:
