FC Day 20 - Potato-Horseradish-Crusted Mahi Mahi

I love hash browns. I love horseradish. And I love Dijon mustard. Whoever thought of combining them all on top of a nice fillet of Mahi Mahi is a God. Ok, maybe that's a little excessive and sacrilegious, but this is one tasty fish dish. I've made it several times, and it never disappoints.

I should have cooked the hash brown side a bit longer to get it extra-crispy, but I was hungry. Patience is not my strong suit.

Ingredients

• 1 shallot, finely chopped (I was lazy and used dried, minced onions this time)
•  1 Tbs prepared horseradish

Preparation

1. Combine potatoes, shallot, horseradish, mustard, garlic salt and pepper in a bowl
2. Spread 1 tsp mayo on each fillet and the press potato mixture onto fish
3. Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat and place fish potato-side down; cook for 5 minutes until brown and crispy. Turn over and cook 5 additional minutes on medium heat, until flaky.
