Golden Fish Sticks

2 1/2 TBSP regular or low-fat mayonnaise
1 1/2 TBSP sweet pickle relish
3 tsp fresh lemon juice
2 1/2 cups cornflakes
2 tsp grated lemon peel
2 TBSP butter, melted
3/4 lb white fish fillets (like orange roughy), cut crosswise into 3/4 inch strips

Position rack in top third of oven and preheat to 500 degrees.

Mix mayonnaise, relish, and 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice in small bowl--this is your tartar sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Crush cornflakes until coarse crumbs. Transfer to bowl and mix in lemon peel. Mix butter and remaining 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice in small bowl.

Season fish with salt and pepper. Brush with lemon butter, then dip into cornflake mixture, coating completely. Arrange fish on baking sheet. Sprinkle with any remaining cornflake mixture. Bake fish until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Serve with sauce.

2 servings, can be doubled.
