Fish fingers is a widely liked dish by kids and adults alike. But if you are following a keto diet, and wish to eat this, there has to be some changes made to the coating used for making fish fingers to make it keto friendly. Its great as an intermediate snack or as a party starter. Though I have deep fried these fish fingers, they taste great if you bake them or air fry them too.
