Steps:
- Place Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns on large cutting board.

- Place eggs in shallow dish and whisk until completely blended.
- Place flour on a shallow plate.
- Run Tilapia through eggs, press flour into both sides and shake off excess, and then press firmly into finely diced Hash Browns. Place on wax paper or parchment paper and let sit for 15 - 20 minutes.
- Place canola oil in a large skillet over high heat and bring to frying temperature (very hot without smoking). To test, drop a few of the Hash Browns into the oil and if the oil bubbles all around them, it's hot enough. Carefully place 2-3 filets into the hot oil. Cook on one side until golden brown, then flip and bring the other side to golden brown, about 6- 8 minutes total.
- Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remainder filets. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- For a crispy crust, use russet potatoes that are freshly grated.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the potatoes by hand using a box grater.
- Be sure to squeeze out as much excess moisture from the grated potatoes as possible. This will help the crust to stick to the tilapia.
- If you don't have any fresh herbs, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, or oregano.
- Serve the potato-crusted tilapia with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tartar sauce, remoulade, or horseradish sauce.
Conclusion:
Potato-crusted tilapia is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is a great way to get your kids to eat fish, and it is also a healthy and affordable option. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
