Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tablespoons butter, divided
1 small onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 1/2 lbs Brussels sprouts, stems trimmed and each cut in half lengthwise
1 cup water
salt
fresh ground pepper
4 (5 ounce) skinless mahi mahi fillets
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 300°F.
For the brussels sprouts, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over high heat in a large saute pan. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the brussels sprouts and toss to combine. Continue to cook over high heat until the sprouts begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the water and season generously with salt. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium.
Gently sear the mahi mahi fillets, skin side down, in a small, dry ovenproof saute pan over medium heat until they just begin to color, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the fish is an even color throughout, about 8 minutes.
For the flavored butter, mix the feta cheese with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the parsley. Mash with a fork to combine, breaking up the feta as much as possible. Set aside.
When the mahi mahi is done, uncover the sprouts and turn the heat up to high. When the liquid remaining in the pan has reduced enough to just barely coat the sprouts, remove from the heat and toss with freshly ground black pepper.
Arrange the fillets and brussels sprouts on a platter and put a dollop of the feta butter on each of the mahi mahi fillets. Serve family style.
