Tilapia Rockefeller

A couple of weeks ago, Ben and I had dinner at Cajun Steamers, and I got this dish. While it was good, I thought I could make it better. So here is my adapted recipe. Ben and I thought it was delicious! I wish I had taken a picture to post. I will next time I make it.

Ingredients:
2 tilapia fillets (I bought a package of frozen ones)

For the sauce:
1 Tbs butter
1/2 yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 slices bacon, chopped
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1 package frozen creamed spinach, cooked
1 cup shredded cheese (I used 1/2 cup parmesan and 1/2 cup cheddar)
Creole seasoning to taste

For the potatoes:
3 red potatoes, sliced into chunks and boiled until soft
3 Tbs butter
1/2 cup sour cream
Creole seasoning to taste (I use Tony's)

First, wash, slice, and boil your potatoes. While they are cooking start to make your sauce. In a large saucepan on medium heat, melt butter. Then add the diced onion, stirring occasionally. When the onions begin to get soft add the bacon and garlic. Cook for 3 minutes while stirring continuously. Add cream and stir to combine. Turn the heat down to low and let cook for five minutes. Meanwhile, drizzle olive oil on fish and then sprinkle some of the creole seasoning on both sides. Heat a frying pan to medium heat and cook on both sizes until fish is no longer translucent and flakes easily (This only takes about 5-7 minutes). Drain the potatoes, mash and add butter, sour cream, and seasoning. Mash until well combined and potatoes are smooth (You can use an electric mixer to make the potatoes smooth and fluffy). Add cheese and as much of the spinach as you want to the sauce (I used about 1/2 of the package). Stir until cheese is melted. Add creole seasoning to taste. On two plates place a mound of mashed potatoes. Place tilapia on top and pour the sauce on top of the tilapia. Enjoy!
