When my husband gets creative in the kitchen, we end up with delicious dinners like this pan-seared Mahi Mahi recipe! He prefers skinless Mahi Mahi filets but ... if you need to remove the skin from the fish, cook skin side down for about 1 minute and the skin will peel back easily. We hope you enjoy this dish- it comes together in one pan!
Pan-Seared Sherry Mahi Mahi
1 1/2- 2 lbs. Mahi Mahi fillets
1 piece bacon
1/2 cup Sherry cooking wine
1/4 cup chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 TBSP olive oil
1/8-1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/8 cup plain bread crumbs
1/2 cup portabella mushrooms, sliced
1/8 cup parsley, chopped
1/4 cup sliced radishes
Salt and pepper the side of the fish without skin.
Let fish set for about 30 mins. and come to room temperature.
In large pan, cook piece of bacon. Set bacon aside but leave grease in pan.
Add 1 TBSP olive oil to pan with bacon grease.Heat over medium heat
Place fish in pan skin-side down for about 3 minutes.
While fish is cooking, sprinkle on a thin coating of bread crumbs.
Flip fish and remove skin.
Add salt and pepper to the fish and then repeat the coat of breadcrumbs on this side of fish, too.
Flip the fish every few minutes until cooked- it will be white and slightly flaky.
Remove fish from pan to a dish and cover the fish to keep warm.
In the pan, add 2 TBSP olive oil and cook garlic for about a minute.
Next, add the Sherry cooking wine and cook until liquid has reduced by half.
Add mushrooms, radish- and crumble the bacon into the pan. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add parsley and basil and then pour in chicken broth. Cook for another minute and then add Mahi Mahi back to pan. Turn off heat.
Serve Mahi Mahi on a plate with juices spooned over top of fish.
