They always wanted the fish fingers to be extra crispy. So I always made them at home with chunky pieces of salmon or cod and pan fried them for that extra crispy texture.  As they grew older they wanted more substantial meals and I stopped making fish fingers or fish sticks as they are called in the U.S. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week my daughter reminded me how much she loved fish sticks and we hadn&#8217;t made it in years. So in the current situation that we are in I thought it would be nice to make things that reminded us of their childhood. Only this time we made it a bit grown up with tartar sauce, broccoli slaw and of course a side of chilled beer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Salmon works really well in this recipe, but it works with any firm white fish like cod, halibut, red snapper. Make sure  the fish is firm, and cut into 1.5-2 inch pieces to get good chunky pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img
