One of the reasons I choose tilapia for dinner is that its mild flavor is so versatile. I’ve kept it simple here, but you know what they say: simple is often best. In this recipe, new potatoes cook up crispy-brown on the outside and fluffy-tender on the inside, while the fish is brushed with a pesto mayonnaise and flash-roasted in a hot oven. The mayo keeps the fish moist and also acts as a dipping sauce for the potatoes. Versatility never tasted so good.
