- 2 egg yolks
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup all natural dehydrated potato flakes
- 1 pinch fresh thyme leaves chopped
- 4 halibut fillets ( 6 ounces each skins removed)
- 6 tablespoons pure olive oil
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- Beat egg yolks with salt and pepper in a pie pan
- Combine fillets with salt and pepper on one side only, dip that side only into yolks
- place fillets in flakes one at a time egg side down pressdown so flakes adhere. Set fillets aside, crust side down
- pour olive oil into a large skillet pan, arrange fillets crust side down. No needd to preheat just place pan over medium high heat for 3 minutes. Crusts should now be golden brown if not raise heat and keep cooking until they are. Season tops with salt and pepper.
- Flip over and cook for 1 minute
- Remove pan frm heat. Leave fillets in pan for 1 more minute, then remove. Add lemon juice to pan and swirl to loosen remaining crust.
- spoon a side dish of your choice into the center of each dinner plate. Arrange fish on top crust side up. Spoon sauce from pan over fish.
