Happy National Fish & Chips Day!

Today I’ve got a great recipe for Keto Fish and Chips to share with you. It is fast, cheap, and out of control. So grab a fish and let’s get started!

Where do they come from?

You may think that the answer is England, but that is not completely true.  The fried fish in fish and chips was actually brought to England by Jews in the 15th Century.  And the chips came over from Belgium a few hundred years later.  Story has it that the winter of 1680 was so cold that the River Meuse froze over.  Since the men couldn’t fish, the women came up with a scrappy solution to the problem.  They “chipped” potatoes into the shape of fish and fried them in oil. 

But the idea of combining fried fish with chips did come from England.

Are they Keto friendly?

The breading of the fish and the potatoes of the chips are low carb no no’s.  But don’t worry, fish and chips can still be in yours.  This Keto Fish and Chips recipe will satisfy your cravings for Britain’s favorite take-out meal.

Keto Fish and Chips ingredients:

To make the Keto Fish Sticks you’ll need white fish like cod, tilapia or catfish, oat fiber, mayonnaise, almond milk or water, ground pork rinds, and parmesan cheese.  And to make the chips you just need a daikon radish, olive oil, and some salt.

How to make them

First, you bread the fish with oat fiber, pork rinds, and parmesan cheese.  Then you cook it in the air fryer or oven for about 12 minutes at 400 degrees F.  Peel and cut the daikon radishes into matchsticks and soak them in cold water for 10 minutes to get rid of some of the starch.  Dry them off and toss them with olive oil.  Either bake at 400 degrees F for 50 minutes or air fry at 375 degrees F for 9 minutes.

Fish and Chips condiments:

Don’t let any British people hear this, but fish and chips actually go great with good old American ketchup and/or keto tartar sauce.  Of course, you can serve the Keto fish sticks wrapped in newspaper and doused with malt vinegar like they do in England, but I’m not sure where you even buy a newspaper nowadays.  Best just stick with what works.

📋 Recipe

To make the Fried Fish Sticks:

You start by cutting 1 pound of white fish into 1 x 3 inch strips.

Then you add 2 tablespoons oat fiber to a shallow bowl.

Mix together ¼ cup mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons almond milk and add it to another shallow bowl.

Mix together a ½ cup ground pork rinds with ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese and add it to a third shallow bowl.

Take a piece of fish and dredge it in the oat fiber. Then dip it into the mayo mixture and coat it in the pork rind mixture.

Add a single layer of fish sticks to an air fryer and spray them with cooking spray. Cook for 5 minutes at 400 degrees F. Use tongs to carefully flip the fish sticks and then cook for another 5 minutes at 400 degrees F.

Or bake the fish sticks on a parchment-covered and oiled cookie sheet. Spray the fish sticks with cooking spray and bake for 6 minutes in a 400-degree oven. Carefully flip using a pancake-turner and bake for another 6 minutes.
