Halibut Fish Sticks With Dill-Caper Tartar Sauce
"This is from the current Bon Appetit magazine, in the Fast Easy Fresh section. I fixed it for dinner tonight and we really enjoyed it. The coating is crispy and satisfying, and the tartar sauce is very good. I hope you try it and enjoy it as much as we did!"

I just made the tartar sauce and it was really good... maybe not the ideal tartar sauce for kids. This is a recipe I'll definitely make again. thanks! -
Very delicious fish sticks. The tartar sauce is really good. Easy to prepare and the coating is nice and crispy. I did put some seasoning salt in with the panko crumbs. Thanks for posting!

I live with my husband of 34 years in Oregon. We have 3 great kids and 4 beautiful grandchildren, 6 year old triplets and a soon to be 2 year old. Our daughter lives in Athens, Greece with her husband and our youngest, a son, just got married last summer. My stepson and his wife are the parents of our grandchildren and live about an hour away. Our family is growing and it's always fun to have them all together! I love to travel. I have just returned from a trip to Vietnam and have visited our daughter in Greece several times. During my travels I always enjoy the local food and have fun trying to re-create it at home. To pay the bills, I've been a hairstylist for 40 years and I still love it. I knit, sew, read and I'm just beginning to become interested in quilting,digital scrapbooking and geneology.
