1
Prepare the Cod
Cut the cod fillets into finger-sized sticks, about 1 inch wide.
2
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate bowls, place flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and bread crumbs mixed with salt, pepper, and paprika in the third.
3
Bread the Fish
Coat each cod stick first in flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally roll in the seasoned bread crumbs until fully coated.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
5
Fry the Fish Sticks
Carefully add the breaded fish sticks to the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
6
Drain and Serve
Remove fish sticks from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
