MAHI-MAHI WITH FENNEL, OLIVES, AND ORANGE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Toss orange supremes, fennel, and olives with lettuce. Top with mahi-mahi and drizzle with olive oil.

CUBAN-STYLE ORANGE CITRUS GRILLED MAHI-MAHI

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the mahi-mahi with salt and pepper. Coat in 1/4 cup of the Cuban Style Orange Citrus Vinaigrette in a shallow bowl or baking dish. Let marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the bacon to a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring, until crispy, about 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon pieces, leaving the drippings in the pan. Add the peppers and onions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the rice, 2 cups water, cumin and a large pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer, cover and reduce the heat. Cook until the rice is tender and the all water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the beans and bacon pieces.
• Brush the grill grates generously with oil. Place the fish on the grill, rounded-side down, and leave it until you can lift the fish without it sticking to the grill and there are distinct grill marks, about 5 minutes. (Test it by gently lifting a corner -- if it sticks, cook it a bit longer and try again.) Carefully turn the fish over and cook until firm to the touch, about another 5 minutes.
• Divide the rice and beans among 4 plates. Top each with a piece of mahi-mahi. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette. Sprinkle with crushed plantains and serve each with a lime quarter.

MAHI MAHI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
• In a small saucepot, reduce the cream over medium heat until it thickens or coats the back of a spoon. Add the crab boil seasoning and the Cajun seasoning. When the water boils, add the crab and cook through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the crab and let cool. Pick the crab meat from the shells and add it to the cream. Keep warm.
• Fill a medium saute pan with about 1-inch of salted water, or enough to cover the asparagus. Heat the water over medium heat, add the asparagus, and cook slowly until the asparagus is bendable. Then plunge into a bowl of ice water for about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper. Place the fish in the hot pan and cook on both sides until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Place in the oven to cook through, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• To serve, spoon 1/2 of the cream onto a warm plate. Place the fish on top, and spoon the remainder of the cream over the fish. Serve with asparagus and top with the peppers and scallions.

GRILLED MAHI MAHI WITH BLOOD ORANGE SAUCE AND SALSA

Steps:

• Sprinkle fish with salt, brush with oil and grill until cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• To make the salsa, combine the blood oranges, cilantro, Arbol chile, onion, olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
• To make the sauce, simmer blood orange juice over low heat until reduced to 1/4 cup, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Remove from heat and reserve. In a small saucepan, combine shallots and red wine vinegar and reduce over low heat. Add white wine and reduce again. Stir in cream and heat just to simmer. Remove from heat and stir in butter piece by piece until incorporated. Stir in reserved blood orange syrup, strain sauce and keep warm. To serve, place fillets on individual plates, spoon sauce over fish and top with salsa.

MAHIMAHI WITH ORANGE SALSA

Steps:

• Combine orange, red pepper, scallions, red onion, and cilantro. Add orange juice, syrup, lime juice, and olive oil. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Grill the fish fillets for 4 minutes on each side and top with salsa.

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.

SPICY ORANGE GLAZED GRILLED MAHI-MAHI WITH BRAISED FENNEL

Steps:

• Juice one fennel bulb by either a) placing in a juicer, or b) placing in blender, then straining blender contents; discarding solids.
• Cut each of the other two fennel bulbs into six pieces.
• Lightly sautee garlic and ginger in olive oil, until translucent.
• Add the cut fennel, white wine, and the fennel juice. Cook fennel until soft.
• Season fennel with salt and pepper.
• As fennel cooks, season the fish and place on grill (or grill pan). Cook about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
• Right before you remove fish from grill, brush on orange glaze. Serve fish with braised fennel.
• For the Spicy Orange Glaze:.
• Place sugar in a dry, hot pan, stirring until sugar is caramelized a golden brown.
• Add juice, thai chili, ginger, garlic and the lemongrass. Cook until reduced to half.
• Strain and chill until used to glaze the grilled mahi-mahi.

STRIPED BASS OR MAHI MAHI WITH FENNEL, LEEKS AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Lay the fish fillets in a baking dish or on a sheet pan and season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the lemon juice over the fish and refrigerate while you make the sauce.
• In a large lidded sauté pan that will accommodate all of the fish in one layer (see note below), heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the leeks. Cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes, and add the garlic and a large pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds to a minute, and add the fennel. Turn down the heat to medium-low, cover the pan and cook, stirring often, until the fennel is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Uncover the pan, add the tomatoes, salt to taste, and the pepper and cook uncovered, stirring often, for 10 to 15 minutes, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the mixture is thick and fragrant. Stir in the dill and 1 tablespoon of the parsley.
• Lay the fish over the fennel mixture. (Note: If the pan isn't big enough, divide the mixture between two pans.) Cover and place over medium heat. Simmer 10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and pulls apart easily with a fork. Sprinkle on the remaining parsley and serve the sauce and fish together, with rice or potatoes.
