Best Mahi Mahi Breakfast Recipes

MAHI MAHI BREAKFAST

Steps:

• Oil the flat grill top with margarine or butter. Place fish down on grill and put a weight on top. Cook until browned on 1 side. Take off weight and flip. Lightly season with garlic and herb seasoning. Continue cooking until just cooked through. Add water under the weight to steam, if desired.

MAHI MAHI WITH COCONUT RICE AND MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, red pepper flakes, black pepper, ginger, green onion, and salt in a bowl. Add the mahi mahi and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack in the middle of the oven.
• Bring the rice, water, chicken bouillon, and 1 tablespoon butter to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Stir, and simmer uncovered until the rice has absorbed most of the coconut milk.
• While the rice is cooking, remove the mahi mahi from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Place fish in a large baking dish in a single layer. Broil in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes. If the fish browns too quickly, cover the baking dish with a sheet of aluminum foil.
• Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter and 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the mixture begins to bubble, stir in mango cubes. Cook and stir until mango is tender, about 5 minutes. Serve by placing a mahi mahi fillet over a scoop of hot rice and top with the mango salsa.

ISLAND-STYLE BAKED MAHI MAHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Heat olive oil and butter in an oven-proof pan over low heat until butter is melted. Remove from the heat.
• Beat eggs in a small, shallow dish. Mix Parmesan and flour in a second shallow dish.
• Season mahi mahi fillets with salt and pepper. Dip into beaten egg. Lift up so excess egg drips back in the bowl. Press into Parmesan mixture to coat both sides. Lay each fillet into the melted butter mixture, then turn each piece over to coat. Sprinkle macadamia nuts evenly over each fillet.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 11 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
• Place each fillet on a serving plate and top with 1/4 cup mango salsa.

MAHI MAHI WITH ARTICHOKES AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir shallot and garlic in butter until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
• Pour lemon juice and white wine into the skillet; season with kosher salt and black pepper. Cook the liquid at a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces enough to stick to the back of a spoon, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Stir tomatoes and artichoke hearts into the reduced sauce; cook until warmed, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove skillet from heat, add cold butter pieces, and swirl skillet off heat until the butter melts and emulsifies into the sauce.
• Stir flour and seasoned salt together in wide, shallow bowl. Dredge mahi mahi fillets in flour mixture to coat.
• Heat olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry mahi mahi in the oil until the fish flakes easily with a fork in the center, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer mahi mahi to a platter; top with the sauce.

THE BEST MAHI-MAHI

Steps:

• For the salsa: Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium heat. When hot, brush generously with vegetable oil.
• Grill the pineapple rings and scallions (working in batches if using a grill pan), flipping the scallions often, until tender and charred, 3 to 5 minutes total and flipping the pineapple once, until nicely charred, about 5 minutes on each side. Let cool on a cutting board then dice. Toss to combine with the lime juice and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside. (The cilantro and mint will be added just before serving.)
• For the mahi-mahi: Combine the soy sauce, red pepper flakes, garlic, scallion, ginger, lime juice and reserved pineapple juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, syrupy and thick, about 6 minutes.
• Pat the mahi-mahi dry with paper towels and generously brush the tops of the fish with the glaze; season with a good pinch each of salt and pepper. Grill glaze-side down, undisturbed, until nicely charred, about 5 minutes. Brush the tops of the fish with glaze and season with another pinch each of salt and pepper. Flip and grill, undisturbed, until the fish is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Brush the tops with more glaze.
• Divide the fish among plates. Fold the cilantro and mint into the pineapple salsa, then spoon it over the fish. Serve immediately.
