1-2 Tbs vegetable oil, for pan
1 lb wild Alaska pollock fillet or cod fillet
1 large egg
3 Tbs water
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
Salt and pepper to taste
DIP
3 Tbs mayonnaise
3 Tbs ketchup
Chives or onion, finely chopped
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease a baking sheet with a little vegetable oil.
