Crock pot Tilapia with Potatoes

 
 
 
You already know that I'm a huge fan of the two-fer.  You know, two things at once.  So just like the BBQ chicken and baked potatoes, this recipe relies on filling my crock pot full.
 
 
I started with my crock pot tilapia recipe.  I made this and layered it in the bottom of the crock pot.
 
Then I added a very large sheet of aluminum foil.   Lay it on top of the fish in the crock pot with the edges extending over the sides of the crock.  Take about 4-5 potatoes and cut into small cubes.  Layer on top of the sheet of foil.   Add 4-5 tablespoons of butter - sliced and spread around on top of the potatoes.  The add salt & pepper to taste.  I sprinkled some dried parsley on top as well.  Wrap up the edges of the foil over the potatoes and seal. 
 




Cook on low for 4-5 hours until done. 

This was great, but next time I would cut my potatoes just a little bit smaller.  They were done, but we're fans of smooshy potatoes. 

Best news, there was hardly any mess in the bottom of the crock pot. 

I just added a salad and dinner was ready. 

Enjoy!

I so have to try this. I never thought to put fish in the crock pot. Which is silly since I cook just about everything else in it.

It's one of my favorite fish recipes.
