Steps:
- Halve potatoes lengthwise. Using a very sharp knife or mandolin, slice potatoes lengthwise into paper-thin rounds.
- Lay a piece of parchment paper on work surface; arrange potato slices, slightly overlapping, to form a 5-by-7-inch rectangle on parchment; season with salt and pepper.
- Place one fish fillet on potato rectangle. Using the parchment paper, wrap one side of the potatoes around the fish, pressing to adhere. Top with three parsley leaves. Wrap remaining side of potato rectangle around fish and over parsley, pressing to adhere. Carefully remove parchment paper and discard. Repeat process with remaining potatoes, fish fillet, and parsley.
- Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat potatoes dry with a clean towel and add fish, parsley side down; cook, turning, until potatoes are golden and crisp on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from heat and serve immediately with beurre rouge sauce.
POTATO-CRUSTED HALIBUT
Steps:
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the olive oil, garlic, thyme, bay leaves, lemon zest, crushed red pepper flakes and fennel seeds. Bring to a boil then turn the heat off and let it sit for at least 1 hour. (*Big tip: This can be done ahead and used for LOTS of different things.)
- Using a mandoline, slice 1 potato extremely thin, (paper thin), in elongated rounds. Lay a piece of parchment paper on a clean, dry work surface. Arrange 3 potato slices in an overlapping vertical line pressing them together as you put them on the parchment. Repeat this process until you have a 4 by 6-inch overlapping potato rectangle that replicates fish scales. Brush the potato "scales" with the infused oil and sprinkle with salt. Season the halibut with salt. Lay the halibut fillet closer to 1 end of the potato rectangle than the other and then roll the fish up in the potato slices, using the parchment to help facilitate the rolling. Press to compact and really adhere the potatoes to the fish. Brush the outside of the potatoes with the infused oil to seal the potatoes and to prevent the potatoes from turning brown, this will also help make a nice tight "fish package". Reserve the fish in the refrigerator while preparing the remaining fillets. Refrigerate the fillets for at least 1 hour before cooking.
- To cook the fish:
- Add the infused olive oil to a large nonstick saute pan until the bottom is generously covered and bring the pan to a medium-high heat. Season the fish with salt and add to the pan. Cook the fish on both sides for 3 to 4 minutes frequently spooning the excess oil over the fish to "baste" it. The potatoes should be crispy golden brown and very well flavored and the fish will be succulent inside its crispy "scales". Transfer to serving plates and serve.
- This will make a fish lover out of anyone!

- Melt 2 pieces of the butter. Toss the potatoes with the melted butter and season with 1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:
- 1. Turn on the oven to 400°F.
