Ingredients
  

  • 8-10 ounces potatoes, thinly sliced (1/8 inch thick)
  • 1 large shallot, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 8 ounces Brussel Sprouts, thinly sliced
  • 1 pinch caraway seeds optional
  • 2 x 6 ounce filets of white fish (e.g., cod, halibut)
  • 2-4 teaspoons whole grain mustard

Equipment

  • Parchment-lined baking sheet
  • Mandoline (optional)
  • Medium bowl
  • Small Bowl

Method
 

Part 1: The First Roast
  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. In a bowl, toss the thinly sliced potatoes and shallots with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  2. Spread them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
Part 2: Assemble and Final Bake
  1. While the potatoes bake, toss the sliced Brussels sprouts in the same oily bowl with caraway seeds, salt, and pepper. In a separate small bowl, mix the whole grain mustard and 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper, then spoon the mustard mixture over the fish.
  2. After 20 minutes, remove the pan from the oven. Add the Brussels sprouts and toss them with the potatoes. Make a space in the center for the fish.
  3. Place the fish fillets on the pan and bake for 10-12 more minutes, until the fish is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  4. Divide the potato-brussel sprout hash among two bowls and top with the mustard-glazed fish. Serve immediately.

Notes

Two-Stage Roasting is Key: Giving the potatoes a 20-minute head start ensures they get crispy and are perfectly cooked at the same time as the quicker-cooking fish and Brussels sprouts.
Don’t Crowd the Pan: For the best caramelization, make sure all your ingredients are in a single, even layer on the baking sheet.
High Heat for Roasting: The hot 450°F oven is essential for getting a beautiful, crispy-brown finish on the vegetables.
