Potato-Horseradish-Crusted Mahi-Mahi Recipe

 

Potato-Horseradish-Crusted Mahi-Mahi

1 cup precooked shredded potatoes

1 shallot, finely chopped

1 Tbsp. prepared horseradish

1 tsp. Dijon mustard

½ tsp. garlic salt

¼ tsp. freshly ground pepper

1 ¼ lb. mahi-mahi, skin removed, cut into 4 portions

4 tsp. reduced-fat mayonnaise

1 Tbsp. canola oil

1 lemon, quartered

 

Combine potatoes, shallots, horseradish, mustard, garlic salt and pepper in a medium bowl.  Spread each portion of fish with 1 teaspoon mayonnaise, then top with one-fourth (1/4) of the potato mixture, pressing the mixture onto the fish.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.  Carefully place the fish in the pan potato-side down and cook until crispy and browned, 4 to 5 minutes.  Gently turn the fish over, reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 5 minutes more.  Serve the lemon wedges.       4 servings

Muffin-Tin Crab Cakes

 

This recipe, Muffin-Tin Crab Cakes, we’ve taken the frying and fuss out of crab cakes by shaping and baking them in muffin tins.  For the best taste, look for pasteurized crabmeat in the refrigerator case at your market’s fish counter, a better choice than canned varieties.  Try these cakes with tangy tartar sauce and coleslaw.

This recipe, Grilled Shrimp Remoulade is from Diabetic Connect.  An updated and untraditional remoulade makes a tangy sauce for these spice-rubbed shrimp.  While this is a warm-weather favorite on the grill, you can also cook the shrimp under a preheated broiler.  Cook shrimp on a lightly sprayed broiler rack, about 4 inches from the heat, for a winter warmer any night of the week.
