Oven-Fried Fish Nuggets
LaDonna Reed of Ponca City, Oklahoma shares her buttery-tasting fish bites, which don't taste light at all. She writes, “My husband and I love fresh, fried fish, but we're both trying to cut back on fats. I made up this recipe and it was a huge hit. He tells me that he likes it as much as deep-fried fish, and that's saying a lot!”4 ServingsPrep/Total Time: 25 min.
