Potato Crusted Tilapia

Potato Crusted Tilapia:
4 tilapia filets (any thin white fish will work)
1 tbs fresh rosemary, chopped fine
1 large baking potato
salt, pepper
olive oil
1/2 tablespoon butter

Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper.
Very thinly slice potato, best to use a mandolin.
Lay 1 layer of potatoes on fish, overlapping like shingles. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and rosemary
Drizzle a oven safe pan with olive oil and add butter, on med-high heat.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Once butter is melted and starts to foam, add fish potato side down. Cook until potatoes brown around the edges about 5-7 minutes.
Put pan into the oven for 15 minutes until fish in cooked through. Remove from oven.
Carefully removed fish and potatoes with a spatula, should come out easily. 
I like to finish with a light sprinkle of salt.

  1. This sounds amazing. I always have Tilapia on hand, so I will have to try it. I saw your Piccata recipe, too, and have one that I love to make. Have a great weekend!
