It's a perfect combination of textures and flavors, making it a favorite for many. This recipe is easy to follow and provides a delicious meal that can be enjoyed by the entire family.

Ingredients:

1.50 lb white fish
680g
1 cup milk (1% fat)
240g
1/2 cup bread crumbs
44g
4 potatoes
800g
2 garlic cloves
6g
2 tbsp butter
30g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g
1 tbsp lime juice
16g
2 tbsp white wine
30g
1 tbsp parsley
16g

Instructions:

1. Prep the Potatoes:
- Peel and quarter the potatoes.
- Place them in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
2. Prepare the Fish Fillets:
- While the potatoes are cooking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a shallow bowl, pour the milk. In another shallow bowl, place the bread crumbs.
- Dip each fish fillet into the milk, then coat with bread crumbs. Press the crumbs onto the fish to ensure they stick.
3. Cook the Fish:
- Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the breaded fish fillets to the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Once browned, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
4. Finish the Mashed Potatoes:
- Once the potatoes are tender, drain and return them to the pot.
- Add the butter, garlic, and a splash of milk.
- Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Prepare the Sauce:
- In a small saucepan, combine the lime juice, white wine, and parsley.
- Cook over medium heat until slightly reduced, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
6. Serve:
- Plate the mashed potatoes and top with the baked fish fillets.
- Drizzle the parsley sauce over the fish fillets.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve hot and enjoy your Fish Fillets and Mashed Potatoes with a hint of lime and parsley.

Tips:

- Use fresh white fish for the best taste and texture. Cod, haddock, or tilapia are good options.

- Soak the fish in milk before breading to help reduce any fishy odor and enhance flavor.

- For creamier mashed potatoes, make sure to fully drain the potatoes and mash them while hot.

- You can replace white wine with chicken broth if you prefer a non-alcoholic option.

- Adjust the amount of garlic to your liking. Roasting the garlic before adding it to the mashed potatoes can give a sweeter, milder flavor.

- Garnish the final dish with fresh dill or parsley for an extra burst of flavor and a touch of color.

Enjoy your perfectly cooked fish fillets paired with creamy, garlicky mashed potatoes. This dish not only offers a delightful taste but also provides a balanced meal rich in protein and carbs. Whether you are cooking for a regular meal or a special occasion, this recipe promises satisfaction.
