Tilapia With Potato Crust and Chive Rosemary Oil
- 4 (4 -6 ounce) tilapia fillets
- 8 -12 ounces potatoes, peeled and very thinly sliced (refer to note below)
- 1 tablespoon fresh minced rosemary, plus 1 tablespoon
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 12 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 13 cup minced fresh chives or 13 cup scallion
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 14 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place the fish fillets on a work surface and season with salt and pepper.
- Top each of the fillets with enough slices of potato to completely cover the surface of the fish, overlaying the potatoes like shingles.
- Sprinkle the potatoes with a bit more salt and pepper, and the 1 tablespoon rosemary leaves.
- Heat a large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the olive oil and the butter.
- When the butter is melted and the oil is hot add the fish, potato side down.
- Place the skillet in the oven and bake until the fish is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- (Note: if your fish filets can't all fit in a skillet, these can be easily transferred to a pyrex dish prior to placing in the oven, as long as you use a long enough spatula that holds potatoes keeping them intact).
- Meanwhile, combine the extra-virgin olive oil, chives or scallions, the remaining 1 tablespoon rosemary, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
- To serve, place the fish on serving plates, potato side up.
- Drizzle the fish and the plate with the chive oil.
- Serve immediately.
- NOTE: Potatoes must be very thinly cut (as thin as potato chips) preferably using a mandolin or a food processor with a slicing blade.
