Olive Tartar Sauce
-
¾ cup mayonnaise with olive oil
-
2 tablespoon chopped pimiento-stuffed green olives or pitted green olives
-
1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion
-
2 teaspoon chopped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
-
2 teaspoon lemon juice or malt vinegar
-
½ teaspoon smoked paprika or lemon zest
Directions
-
Place a baking pan on the top rack of the oven; place another rack in the bottom third. Preheat oven to 500°F.
-
Cut unpeeled potatoes lengthwise into 1/2-inch sticks and let stand in a large bowl of ice water 5 minutes; drain thoroughly and pat dry completely. Toss with 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, and the smoked paprika. Place on the preheated baking pan and spread out into thin layer. Bake 15 minutes. Stir potatoes; leave in oven.
-
Meanwhile, coat a wire rack with nonstick cooking spray and place on a baking pan. In an extra-large skillet heat an additional 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium. Add panko, thyme, and celery seeds. Cook and stir 2 to 3 minutes or until golden. Remove to a shallow dish and stir in cayenne; cool.
-
In another shallow dish whisk together eggs and mustard. Put flour in another shallow dish.
-
Season fish with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt. Dip fish in flour to coat, then egg mixture, then panko mixture. Place on rack in pan.
-
Reduce oven to 425°F. Place fish in oven on the lower rack. (Leave potatoes on the upper rack.) Bake 15 minutes or until fish is golden and flakes easily when tested with a fork (145°F to 155°F) and potatoes are browned and crispy on the edges. Serve with Green Olive Tartar Sauce and, if desired, malt vinegar. Serves 6.
