Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Cut the fillets into strips approximately 2 cm wide.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the gluten-free breadcrumbs and cornmeal with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and lemon zest. Mix well to combine.
In another shallow bowl, beat the eggs and add the milk, stirring to create an even egg wash.
Dip each piece of fish into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture. Press the breadcrumbs onto the fish sticks for better adhesion.
Arrange the breaded fish sticks on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle them lightly with olive oil to enhance their crispiness while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, turning them over halfway through the cooking time to ensure they are golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Once baked, remove the fish sticks from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with your favorite gluten-free dipping sauce and enjoy!
