    A crunchy, cornmeal-herb batter (made light with fat-free milk) puts this English specialty back on the menu. Together with fries coated in vinegar, salt and pepper...Brilliant!

    List of Ingredients




    1 serving cooking spray (5 one-second sprays per serving)
    1 1/2 cup uncooked yellow cornmeal, for coating
    1 cup fat-free skim milk
    1 tsp lemon zest
    1 tsp dried basil
    1 tsp dried oregano
    1 1/4 pound uncooked cod, or haddock fillets (four 5 oz pieces)
    2 Tbsp uncooked yellow cornmeal, for dusting fish
    2 large potato(es), Idaho, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
    2 Tbsp white vinegar, or red wine vinegar
    1/2 tsp table salt
    1/2 tsp black pepper, freshly ground

    Recipe



    1. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
    2. In a shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups of cornmeal, milk, zest, basil and oregano; mix well to make a thick batter. Dust fish with additional 2 Tbsp cornmeal; add fish to batter and turn to coat both sides. Place fish on prepared baking sheet and spoon over any remaining batter, making an even coating. (Note: You can substitute 1 Tbsp lemon and herb seasoning for the zest, basil and oregano if desired.)
    3. Place potatoes in a large bowl and add vinegar, salt and pepper; toss to coat. Arrange potatoes next to fish on baking sheet.
    4. Bake until potatoes and fish are fork-tender and cornmeal batter just starts to crack, carefully flipping fish once, about 30 to 35 minutes. Yields 1 fish fillet and 1/2 potato per serving.
