Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 cup precooked shredded potatoes

  • 1 shallot, chopped

  • 1 teaspoon honey mustard

  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 4 teaspoons mayonnaise

  • 4 tilapia fillets

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Directions

  1. Combine shredded potatoes, shallot, honey mustard, red pepper flakes, garlic salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Spread each portion of fish with 1 teaspoons mayonnaise and top with 1/4 the potato mixture, pressing onto the fish.

  2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place fish in the skillet, potato-side down and cook until crispy and browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn fish over gently, reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking until fish flakes easily using a fork, 4 to 5 minutes more.

  3. Serve fish with lemon wedges.

Cook's Notes:

Look for precooked shredded potatoes in the grocery, or use frozen hash browns and just let them defrost.

Be gentle when flipping fish, as it can easily fall apart.
