- 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning blend
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 tablespoons reduced balsamic drizzle
- 12 asparagus spears, cooked
- 4 fresh cilantro sprigs
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced
- 1 lime, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
***Sweet Potato Mash***
- 2 quarts water, hot
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 4 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled, 2\" dice
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 ounces butter, 1/2\" dice
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
***Cucumber Jalapeno Slaw***
- 1 pound salad cucumbers, peeled, seeded and sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow pepper, sliced
- 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and cored, cut into 1/8\" rings
- 1 small red onion, sliced and separated into rings
- 1/2 cup rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

- 1/2 teaspoon Creole seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin, fresh ground
- 1/2 ounce fresh cilantro, chopped

For Cucumber Jalapeno Slaw: Place the sliced cucumbers, red and yellow bell peppers, jalapeno and red onions in a stainless mixing bowl. Combine the remaining ingredients in a small mixing bowl and mix with a wire whip until evenly blended. Pour the vinaigrette over the vegetables and toss until evenly blended. Adjust seasoning with additional kosher salt, if desired. Chill for at least 4 hours before using. For Reduced Balsamic Glaze: Gently heat balsamic vinegar in pot, reducing to 1/6th of original volume; funnel into a squeeze bottle. Refrigerate. For Sweet Potato Mash: Place the peeled and diced sweet potatoes in a 6 quart pot. Add hot water and salt, then place the stockpot on the stove over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 35 minutes or until an inserted fork in the sweet potatoes pierce easily. Heat the milk, butter, white pepper and cinnamon in a small stockpot until warm, then set aside. Drain the water from the sweet potatoes and transfer them into a mixing bowl. Using a wire whisk, mash until sweet potatoes are broken up. Add the warm seasoned milk and spices, mix again until the sweet potatoes are smooth - being careful not to over mix. If needed, season with additional salt to taste. Garnish with chopped parsley. For Fish: Heat oil in nonstick pan to high heat. Season fish with Creole seasoning blend and place in hot saute pan cooking for 2-3 minutes until it has a seared color. Flip the fish over and finish cooking until done or until 145 degrees F. Make 5-6 zig-zags with the reduced balsamic drizzle on each plate. Place the hot sweet potato mash in the center of plate and place 3 spears of asparagus radiating out from mash to the side. Place the fish slaw, and lay a cilantro sprig atop the slaw. Garnish each plate with a lemon and lime slice and sprinkle with chopped chives. Enjoy!
