Cornmeal-Crusted Tilapia with Tomatillo Salsa

Roasted potatoes go well with the fish. Toss 6 cups quartered red potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Arrange potato mixture in an even layer on a baking sheet, and bake at 400° for 40 minutes or until tender, turning once. Toss potatoes with 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley. Add steamed green beans to round out the plate.

How to Make It

Step 1

To prepare salsa, combine the first 6 ingredients in a blender; process until smooth. Set aside.

Step 2

To prepare fish, combine flour and cornmeal in a shallow dish. Combine 1 tablespoon water and egg white in a shallow dish, stirring well. Sprinkle both sides of fish evenly with salt and chili powder. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Dip fish in egg mixture; dredge in flour mixture. Add fish to pan; cook 2 1/2 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Serve with salsa.
