Recipe Notes
Expert Tips
- For extra flavor, marinate the fish for longer – up to 30 minutes.
- If you don't have a grill, you can pan-fry the fish in a little olive oil.
- Add a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt to your mashed potatoes for extra creaminess.
- Get creative with your veggies! Asparagus, green beans, or bell peppers would also be delicious.
