POTATO-CRUSTED HALIBUT

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h46m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups extra-virgin olive oil
6 garlic cloves, smashed
1 thyme bundle
2 bay leaves
1 lemon, zest removed from the lemon with a vegetable peeler in wide strips
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
3 Yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed
4 (6-ounce) Pacific halibut fillets
Kosher salt

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!

Yield 8 filets, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 tilapia fillets
2 eggs
1 cup flour
1 (20 ounce) package Simply Potatoes® Shredded Hash Browns
2 1/2 cups canola oil

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 medium russet potato (about 9 ounces), peeled and cut into sixths
Kosher salt, as needed, plus 2 teaspoons
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
Four 6-ounce center-cut skinless salmon fillets
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons half-and-half
2 to 3 tablespoons drained prepared horseradish
Four 2-inch-long chive segments, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place a rack about 4 inches from the broiler element and preheat.

  • Meanwhile, preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter and heat. Season the salmon all over with salt and pepper. When the butter's foaming subsides, place the salmon, in the skillet and cook, turning once, until well-browned, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet.
  • Put the cooked potatoes in a small bowl with the 2 teaspoons salt, 2 tablespoons butter, half-and-half, and horseradish and, using a fork, mash until fluffy. Season with pepper, to taste.
  • Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan. Using your hands, press about 1/4 of the potato mixture onto the top of each salmon fillet, to form a thin crust. Lightly brush the potato with the melted butter.
  • Place the salmon under the broiler and cook until still slightly pinkish inside and the crusts are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to serving platter and garnish with the chive segments. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: Firm-fleshed fish like cod, haddock, and halibut work best for this recipe. They hold their shape well during cooking and won't fall apart.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like parsley, dill, and chives add a bright, flavorful touch to the dish. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Don't overcook the fish: The fish should be cooked just until it flakes easily with a fork. Overcooking will make the fish dry and tough.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it's cooked. The potato crust will start to soften as it sits, so don't let it sit for too long before serving.

Conclusion:

Shredded potato-crusted fish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat fish. The crispy potato crust adds a fun and flavorful touch to the dish, and the fish is cooked perfectly. Serve this dish with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
