Ready in: 45 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 2 ounces bacon, chopped
• 4 green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 1/2 tablespoons flour
• 1/2 cup clam juice
• 1 3/4 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 3/4 cup heavy cream
• Salt and pepper
• 6 ounces cooked shrimp, peeled
• 3/4 pound tilapia fillets
• 2 1/4 cups crushed saltine crackers

Preparation method

Prep: 30 mins | Cook: 15 mins

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat. When crisp, transfer bacon to a small bowl.
3. Add green onions to the skillet and cook in bacon fat for about 4 minutes to soften, then stir in flour. Cook for 2 minutes, then add clam juice and 2 cups water.
4. When liquids come to a boil, stir in potatoes. Cook for about 15 minutes to soften, then add cream and salt to taste. Measure out 1/2 cup and set aside.
5. Place shrimp in an 8×8-inch baking dish. Top with the creamy potato mixture from the skillet (don’t use the 1/2 cup reserved yet), the tilapia, salt, pepper, and then the last 1/2 cup of reserved creamy potato mixture.
6. Top with crackers and bacon. Bake for about 15 minutes, until tilapia is cooked through. Serve.
