Ingredients

  • Cooking spray
  • 2 pounds skinless halibut fillets, cut into 1-inch-wide sticks
  • 1/2 cup plain 2% reduced-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup sweet pickle relish
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon 2% reduced-fat milk
  • 5/8 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 4 ounces whole-wheat bread, crusts removed
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely ground black pepper

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 425°. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. 2
    Pop the fish into the freezer for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients. You want the fish very very cold, but not fully frozen.
  3. 3
    Combine the yogurt, the sweet pickle relish, the lemon juice, the milk, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Your kids will love you. Cover the sauce and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  4. 4
    Pulse the bread in a food processor until it is a fine crumb.
  5. 5
    Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Place the crumbs in the skillet and toast 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
  6. 6
    Ready a standard breading setup with three shallow dishes: Flour. Buttermilk. Crumb.
  7. 7
    Remove the fish from the freezer and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Coat the fish sticks in flour, then buttermilk (no remaining dry spots, please), and finally the crumb.
  8. 8
    Arrange the fish sticks on the coated baking sheet, evenly spaced, and mist them evenly with cooking spray.
  9. 9
    Bake for 15 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are crisp and the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
  10. 10
    Serve with the sweet pickle yogurt for dipping.
