- 1 lb haddock fillets or pollack/cod fillets, skinless and boneless

- 2 large eggs beaten
- 1 ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs or regular breadcrumbs
- 2 cups vegetable oil or any neutral oil (*Use 2 teaspoon or 10 ml if air frying)
For the pasta sauce:
- 2 cups heavy cream (36% M.F) or table cream (18% M.F) or whole milk
- ½ cup chicken stock low sodium
- 2 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup all purpose flour

Instructions
Preparing Fish Fillets
- Slice fish filets into 5-inch-long pieces, about 1-inch wide so you have about 10 pieces. Pat dry with a paper towel to remove as much excess moisture as possible. Evenly season both sides with salt and garlic powder.
- Prepare the dredging station by adding all-purpose flour to a large shallow bowl, panko breadcrumbs to the second bowl and beaten eggs to the last bowl. Generously coat each fillet in all-purpose flour first, then beaten eggs, and lastly panko breadcrumbs ensuring no bald spots.
- Deep Fry Method: Heat a large heavy bottomed pan with 2 cups or 500 ml of vegetable oil and bring to medium heat, around 350 degrees F with a digital instant read thermometer or insert a wooden utensil into the oil and look for rapid bubbles. Fry breaded fish in small batches until golden brown, 6-8 minutes in total flipping over halfway. Transfer fried fish to wire rack or paper towel lined plate to remove excess oil.orAir Fry Method: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with vegetable oil. Place breaded fish in a single layer into the air fryer basket and do not overlap giving each piece enough space. Lightly spray 1 teaspoon or 5 ml of vegetable oil over fish fillets. Air fry at 400 degrees F for 12 minutes in total - flipping over halfway spraying oil on the other side as well.
Preparing Pasta
- Bring a large pot filled halfway with water to boil on medium-high heat. Season with 1 tablespoon or 18 g of salt. Cook pasta according to package directions (around 10 minutes) and add another minute to slightly overcook it (if you prefer the pasta al dente, cook for the instructed time. Strain pasta in a colander. Then place pasta back into the large pot and set aside to keep warm.
- In a large saucepan set on medium heat, melt the butter. Then add flour, and mix well until incorporated. Add minced garlic, salt, heavy cream, and chicken stock. Whisk constantly until the sauce bubbles and thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once sauce has thickened, pour cream sauce into pot with pasta. Toss pasta with sauce.
- Serve the creamy pasta with the fried fish. Garnish with dried parsley flakes and enjoy!
