Ingredients:
Instructions:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Plate the mashed potatoes and top with the baked fish fillets.
- Drizzle the parsley sauce over the fish fillets.
- 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.
