Glazed Mahi Mahi Food

MAHI-MAHI WITH PINEAPPLE GLAZE, PEPPERS AND COCONUT RICE

Steps:

• For the coconut rice: Heat the oil in a medium saucepot over medium heat. Add the shallots and salt and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the coconut milk and rice and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and cover with a lid. Cook for about 15 minutes. Remove lid and fluff the rice.
• For the pineapple glaze: Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat and add oil to coat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook until soft and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Be sure to stir often because the sugars will burn quickly! Then add the sambal and salt. Add the scallions and cook until soft, about 2 more minutes. Then, add the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, Dijon mustard and lime juice and zest. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Cook until reduced by one-quarter and thick and glossy, about 10 minutes.
• For the mahi-mahi and peppers: Heat a grill pan to medium high. Coat the grill pan in olive oil. Add the peppers and onions and cook until browned, slightly charred and beginning to soften. Move the peppers to the side of the grill pan. Add a bit more olive oil. Salt the mahi-mahi on both sides. Sear the fish on each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
• Coat the mahi-mahi with the pineapple glaze using a pastry brush. Flip the fish and coat generously on the reverse side. Cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and serve with the coconut rice and grilled peppers. Aloha!

LEMON & HONEY MARINATED MAHI-MAHI W/ GLAZE

Steps:

• Butterfly cut the mahi-mahi fillets so that they are no more than 1/3 to 1/2 inches (80 to 125 mm) thick.
• In a small bowl combine the red wine vinegar, honey, garlic, and hoisin sauce. Stir until uniform.
• Place both the fish and sauce in a large bag and marinate in the fridge for no more than 20 minutes, making sure to coat the fillets evenly. *Marinating for longer than 20 minutes will start to break down the proteins in the fish. Trust me, you want to avoid that.
• When the fillets are done marinating remove them from the bag and set them aside for now. Reserve the marinade in the bag or a small bowl, you'll use it later.
• Heat a medium sized skillet or wok on medium-high heat for 30 seconds (or until a drop of water will instantly boil when added to the pan).
• Add the olive oil and coat the pan evenly.
• As soon as the pan's hot and coated add the fillets. Then sprinkle half of the salt, black pepper, and ginger powder onto the fillets, making sure to cover as much of the meat as possible.
• Let the fillets cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds or until you notice the edges of the meat beginning to whiten.
• Cook the fillets until their bottom sides start to caramelize and turn a light golden color (1-2 minutes); flip.
• Sprinkle the remaining salt, black pepper, and ginger powder onto the fillets and continue cooking until each side is golden and each fillet flakes (2-4 minutes, depending on thickness).
• Remove the fillets to a serving plate and cover.
• Add the reserved marinade to the pan and simmer on low heat until the resulting glaze turns a light golden-brown (1-3 minutes). *Make sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to add the fillet drippings to the glaze.
• Spoon the glaze over each fillet and serve.

Add the chile and curry paste and continue to cook for a few minutes more, stirring to incorporate. Next, put in the thyme, coriander and brown sugar and cook for 2 more minutes. Deglaze with the vermouth and continue to cook. When it has cooked completely dry, add the chicken stock and simmer until reduced by half, about 10 minutes.
• Pour in the coconut milk, increase the heat to high, bring to a boil and then remove the sauce from the heat. Let cool at room temperature. Puree the sauce in a blender and strain it through a fine sieve. Reheat the sauce when needed and finish it with fresh cilantro, lemon juice and salt.
• For the guava glaze: Warm the guava, soy sauce, ginger and jalapeno in a big pot over low heat for 10 minutes, whisking occasionally, to create a smooth glaze. Pour into a blender and run on high speed for 2 minutes. Press the glaze through a fine strainer and keep refrigerated until needed.
