Mahimahi With Crispy Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Oven to 425°. Spread 1 Tbsp olive oil over the surface of rimmed cookie sheet.
• Run the potatoes through a mandoline or slice by hand to get 1/4" thick slices. Toss potato slices with 2 Tbsp olive oil and minced garlic. Salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the potatoes into 4 piles on the cookie sheet. Bake until brown in spots and just tender, 30-35 minutes.
• Pat the mahimahi dry with paper towels and season with salt & pepper. Place 1 mahimahi fillet on top of each potato pile. Top with butter pieces, thyme sprigs and lemon slices on top. Return to oven and continue to bake until fish flakes when poked with knife, about 15 minutes.
• Place one potato & fish pile onto each plate and serve!

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Line a small low-sided pan with aluminum foil. Set the peppers in it and stick the pan under the flaming hot broiler. Broil for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, til the skin blisters and blackens. Drop the peppers into a brown paper bag and seal them up for several minutes to let the steam loosen their skins. Pull the peppers out, peel, and remove the seeds. Dice the flesh and set aside.
• Whip up the sauce. Fling a saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour in the oil and let it heat. Add the onions and shallots, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook til soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more before dumping in the peppers. Douse with the broth, Mutha Sauce, heavy cream, and lemon juice. Simmer 5 minutes, then transfer the steaming contents of the saucepan to a food processor. Whirl til smooth, and scrape the sauce back into the saucepan. Keep warm.
• Inspect your fish fillets. If they have high spots, slice these down to get the thickness as even as possible. Season the fillets with salt and pepper, and spread the top side of each with 1 scant tablespoon of mustard.
• Take handfuls of shredded potatoes and squeeze out the moisture. Press 4 to 5 tablespoons of shreds onto the top of each fillet so they stick to the mustard. Grind on lots of black pepper, and season with a pinch of salt.
• Pour 1/2 cup of the oil into a nonstick frying pan. Set over medium heat til it sizzles when a drop of water is added. Cook 1 or 2 fillets at a time, potato side down first. Don't crowd the pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, til the potatoes are nice and brown but not burned. Don't check til the fish has been cooking for at least 2 minutes. With a slotted spatula, carefully flip the fish over and cook for 2 to 4 minutes more, til cooked through. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels while cooking the other fillets. Add more oil as necessary, but be sure it's nice and hot before adding more fish.
• Ladle a puddle of sauce onto each of 4 plates. Nestle a fillet on top, and serve.
