Ingredients

  1. 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and quartered
  2. 4 red-skinned potatoes (about 1 pound)
  3. 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  4. Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  5. 1 Gala apple, peeled and cut into small pieces
  6. 1 serrano chile pepper, thinly sliced (remove seeds before slicing for less heat)
  7. 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped
  8. 4 6-ounce skinless halibut fillets
  9. 1/2 cup apple cider
  10. 2 1/2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
  11. 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  12. Chopped fresh parsley, for topping

Instructions

  1. Combine the Brussels sprouts and 2 tablespoons water in a microwave-safe bowl; cover with plastic wrap and put the bowl on a plate. Prick the potatoes with a fork and place around the bowl on the plate. Microwave the Brussels sprouts and potatoes until the Brussels sprouts are bright green, about 7 minutes, then continue cooking the potatoes until just tender, 3 to 4 more minutes. Let both cool slightly, then drain the Brussels sprouts and chop the potatoes.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and potatoes; season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add 1 more tablespoon olive oil, the apple, serrano and thyme, and cook until the apple softens, 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a separate large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the fish with salt and pepper; add to the skillet and cook, turning once, until just cooked through, about 8 minutes.
  4. Divide the hash among plates; top with the fish. Add the cider and 2 teaspoons vinegar to the fish skillet; simmer until reduced, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and swirl in the butter and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon vinegar; season with salt. Spoon over the fish and hash; top with parsley.

I made this with white sweet potatoes and left skin on all veg and potatoes. I also fried it in a cast iron skillet from the beginning. This recipe is absolutely delicious. Because this was on the fly, I also substituted red pepper flakes for Serrano and also had to use red wine vinegar instead of white. It was…like I said… super bomb.

Yum!  Super easy and very tasty.  It’s springtime now, but this would be a great fall dish.  Unfortunately couldn’t find halibut, so I substituted with Chilean Sea Bass.  It was excellent!  I bet adding a little crispy bacon to the has would bring it over the top!  Thanks for another great recipe, Food Network!

Great heat from the peppers, a nicely balanced dish…would maybe fry the potatoes next time so they don’t get so mushy. Would definitely make again!
