Time 50m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

Vegetable oil, for the pan
1 shallot, finely diced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups coconut milk
1 cup short-grain rice
Neutral oil, for the pan
3 cloves garlic, minced
1-inch piece ginger, grated
1 teaspoon sambal
Kosher salt
3 scallion ends, finely chopped
1 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Olive oil, for the pan
1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 fillets mahi-mahi

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!

THE BEST MAHI-MAHI



The Best Mahi-Mahi image

With a firm flesh and mild taste, mahi-mahi (aka dorado) is ideal for intense cooking and lots of bold flavor. Here we brush mahi-mahi fillets with a spicy-sweet glaze made with pineapple juice, soy sauce, ginger and red pepper flakes. The fillets hold up well and are easy to flip on a hot grill, which ensures that the glaze becomes sticky and slightly charred, while locking in moisture so the fish is tender and succulent. A quick salsa of grilled pineapple, charred scallions and fresh mint and cilantro is spooned on top as a nod to the mahi-mahi's native tropical waters. You can practically feel the warm breeze off the ocean in every bite!

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Vegetable oil, for brushing
One 20-ounce can pineapple rings, drained, juice reserved for the glaze
4 scallions
Juice of 2 limes
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped
1/4 cup mint leaves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1 scallion, cut lengthwise in thirds
One 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and smashed
Juice of 1 lime
Four 8-ounce filets mahi-mahi
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

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.

GRILLED MAHI MAHI



Grilled Mahi Mahi image

This recipe is great either on the grill or in the oven broiler. The tomatoes give it a little bite. My entire family loves it, even my pickiest eater. In the winter I make this dish in my oven or broiler. The amounts I gave are approximate. I use two cans of tomatoes when I want more 'bite,' only one can when I want less. I like a lot of garlic so I generally use a lot.

Tips:

  • For the freshest flavor, use ripe pineapple. If you don't have fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple chunks, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • To make the glaze, you can use either light or dark rum. Dark rum will give the glaze a richer flavor, while light rum will give it a more delicate flavor.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the mahi-mahi in a skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to grease the skillet well to prevent the fish from sticking.
  • Serve the grilled mahi-mahi with the pineapple rum glaze over rice or your favorite side dish.

Conclusion:

This grilled mahi-mahi with pineapple rum glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a summer cookout. The fish is cooked to perfection and the glaze is sweet, tangy, and flavorful. Serve it with your favorite side dish for a complete meal that your family and friends will love.
