8 red snapper fillets, 5 to 6 ounces each
Salt and pepper
1 large potato, peeled and finely grated
1/2 cup prepared horseradish, drained
4 tablespoons pure olive oil
roasted pepper relish- recipe follows
2 red bell peppers, roasted, peeled, seeded and diced
2 yellow bell peppers, roasted, peeled, seeded and diced

1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes

6 tablespoons pure olive oil

Steps:

Categories     main-dish

Time 53m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 Idaho potatoes, peeled
Salt and pepper
1 cup warm clarified butter
4 (5-ounce) snapper fillets
Beurre Blanc Sauce, recipe follows
Fresh lemon herbs
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup white wine
12 whole black peppercorns
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 shallots, diced
1 pound whole butter, cut into pieces, softened

Steps:

  • Using a Chinese or a regular mandoline, finely julienne the potatoes, and immediately put them into cold water and rinse thoroughly. Repeat 2 or 3 more times, or until water is clear. (The purpose of this is to rinse all the starches and sugars so potatoes do not burn when cooking). Drain water from potatoes and towel dry thoroughly. In a mixing bowl, add potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Add about 1/2 cup of the warm clarified butter, or enough to coat.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Season snapper well with salt and pepper. Take julienned potaotes and put a thin layer on the top side of the fish only. In a large saute pan heat about 1/4-inch of clarified butter over medium-high heat. Carefully lay fillets in pan, potato side down, and pan-fry until potatoes are golden brown. Turn fish over and finish cooking in pan in the oven. Place 1 fillet on each of 4 dinner plates. Top with Beurre Blanc Sauce and garnish with lemon herbs.
  • Heat cream in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced to 3/4 cup. Reserve. In a large skillet, reduce wine, peppercorns, lemon juice, and shallots over high heat until almost dry (only a little liquid remains). Add reduced cream, whipping constantly. Remove from heat, and slowly whip in butter until thickened and smooth. Serve over snapper.

Use snapper, cod, orange roughy, or any other white fish in this recipe. Thin, flat fillets work best. The potato crust is first browned over medium-high heat in a skillet, then the fish finishes cooking in a moderate oven to ensure that it stays moist.

Potato-Crusted Snapper Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by Side Passion

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 eggs, beaten
1-1/2 cups mashed potato flakes
2 teaspoons dried thyme
4 red snapper fillets (6 ounces each)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup olive oil

Steps:

In a large skillet, cook fillets in oil in batches over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: A firm-fleshed fish like red snapper or grouper will work best for this recipe.
  • Make sure the fish is properly seasoned: Season the fish with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before cooking.
  • Use a hot oven: A high oven temperature will help to create a crispy crust on the fish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure there is enough space between the fish fillets so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the fish until it is flaky and opaque: The fish is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork and is no longer translucent.
  • Serve the fish immediately: Potato-crusted fish is best served hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:
