Crisp Potato-Coated Tilapia Fillets

Crisp Potato-Coated Tilapia Fillets feature a crunchy shredded-potato crust that contrasts beautifully with the tender, flaky fish. A touch of honey mustard and shallot brings gentle tang and warmth, while red pepper flakes add a subtle kick. Serve for a quick weeknight Dinner with lemon wedges to brighten each bite.

Crisp Potato-Coated Tilapia Fillets
  1. 1

    In a bowl, mix the shredded potatoes, shallot, honey mustard, red pepper flakes, garlic salt, and black pepper. Spread each portion of fish with 1 teaspoons mayonnaise, then press 1/4 of the potato mixture onto each piece.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Gently place the fish in the skillet, potato-side down, and cook until browned and crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the fish carefully, lower the heat to medium, and cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes more.

  3. 3

    Serve the fish with lemon wedges.
