Lately, I've been trying to add more fish and vegetables into our family's diet. I've been on the prowl for simple weeknight meals that fit the bill for being tasty and nutritious. I watch the Dr. Oz show on occasion and noticed that they oftentimes recommend recipes and post them on their website. I thought I'd start my search there. This was the first recipe that I tried and I'm pleased to say that I am very impressed!
The lemon in the salsa goes perfectly with the fish and really ties it all together. I have also substituted the red onion for scallions, added minced garlic, and included salt and pepper. I also added salt and pepper to the fish before broiling. Overall this is a quick and excellent dish! Oh yeah, and healthy. :)
Mahi Mahi with Avocado Salsa
4 (6oz to 8oz) Mahi Mahi fillets
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper
2 cups ripe avocado, peeled and diced
1/2 cup red onion, finely diced
1 cup tomatoes, peeled and seeded
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped
Salt and pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place fish on baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until fish is flaky and registers 140-145 degrees internally.
While fish is baking, prepare avocado salsa by mixing together remaining ingredients.
Serve with 3 tablespoons of salsa per fish fillet.
Easy breezy!
