EASY CHEESY RANCH-POTATO CHIP FISH FILLETS



Easy Cheesy Ranch-Potato Chip Fish Fillets image

You can be creative and use whatever flavor of potato chips you like, plain, sour cream and onion, salt and vinegar, spicy etc,if using plain flavor I suggest to add some spices, make certain to use a good brand of potato chips --- plan ahead the fish must be refrigerated in the dressing for 1 hour before breading --- I made this using tilapia fillets about 3/4-inch thick and found that 12 minutes was just enough time, cooking times will of coarse vary depending on the size of your fish, I also made this using basa fillets, any meaty fish fillets will work fine for this --- you will love this!

Categories     Oven

Time 1h8m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 (6 ounce) fish fillets
1 1/2 cups prepared bottled ranch dressing (such as Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing, low fat is okay to use)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups crushed potato chips (use any flavored desired, sour cream and onion works well with the ranch dressing)
lemon wedge (optional)

Steps:

  • Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
  • Rinse the fillets under cold water then pat dry using paper towels.
  • Place the ranch dressing in a shallow dish; add in the fish fillets then toss to coat with the dressing (you can use more dressing if desired).
  • Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Set oven to 450 degrees F (oven rack set to lowest position).
  • In a shallow bowl mix the crushed potato chips with the shredded cheese.
  • Coat the fillets into the potato chip coating.
  • Place into prepared baking dish.
  • Bake uncovered for about 8-12 minutes or until the fish flakes (cooking time will depend on the size of your fillets).
  • Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose firm-fleshed fish fillets that will hold their shape when cooking, such as tilapia, cod, or halibut.
  • To ensure the fish cooks evenly, make sure the fillets are of uniform thickness. If necessary, use a sharp knife to trim the fillets to an even thickness.
  • Season the fish fillets generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • To prevent the fish from sticking to the pan, use a non-stick skillet or lightly grease the pan with cooking oil.
  • Cook the fish fillets over medium heat until they are cooked through. The fish is cooked when it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • To make the cheese sauce, use a good quality cheese that melts well, such as cheddar, Gruyère, or Parmesan.
  • To prevent the cheese sauce from becoming too thick, add a little bit of milk or cream.
  • To wilt the spinach, heat a little bit of olive oil in a pan and add the spinach. Cook the spinach until it is wilted and tender.
  • To assemble the cheesy fish fillets, place a cooked fish fillet on a bed of wilted spinach. Top the fish with cheese sauce and serve immediately.

Conclusion:

These cheesy fish fillets with spinach are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The fish is cooked to perfection and the cheese sauce is creamy and flavorful. The spinach adds a pop of color and nutrition to the dish. This recipe is sure to please the whole family.
