I tried this recipe for the first time last week. I was having my parents over for a celebration dinner (I just moved into a new place). Neither of them is really into fish, but they both said they loved it, and kept taking a little bit more. Here is the recipe I was loosely following:
Ingredients
* 3 tablespoons honey
* 3 tablespoons soy sauce
* 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
* 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
* 1 clove garlic, crushed or to taste
* 2 teaspoons olive oil
* 4 (~6 ounce) mahi mahi fillets
* salt and pepper to taste
* 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Directions
1. In a shallow dish, stir together honey, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, ginger, garlic and olive oil. Season fish fillets with salt and pepper, and place them into the dish. If the fillets have skin on them, place them skin side down. Cover, and refrigerate for 20 minutes to marinate.
2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove fish from the dish, and reserve marinade. Fry fish for 4 to 6 minutes on each side, turning only once, until fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove fillets to a serving platter and keep warm.
3. Pour reserved marinade into the skillet, and heat over medium heat until the mixture reduces to a glaze consistently. Spoon glaze over fish, and serve immediately.
This basic recipe is from allrecipes.com; I was working with still semi-frozen fillets (didn't realize it takes so long to defrost!), so I cut them into 1-inch cubes, tossed the fish along with all the marinade in a pan, and stir-fried it that way. Yummm. Maybe I'll try it the traditional way next time!
Oh yeah, here's the nutrition info:
