Mahi Mahi Barbados Recipes

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.

BAKED MAHI MAHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stir mayonnaise, soy sauce, and garlic together in a bowl.
• Place mahi mahi in a baking dish. Spoon mayonnaise mixture over the fish, then turn to coat. Sprinkle saltines over top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.

HAWAIIAN MAHI MAHI

Steps:

• Blend the macadamia nuts and breadcrumbs together until it is coarsely ground mixture. Dip the fillets into the blend; make sure each side is coated evenly.
• Panfry the shallots until they are translucent. Slowly add the chicken stock then the papaya, pineapple (optional) and mango. Add sugar, salt and pepper to taste. The sauce will thicken, which will take about 20 minutes.
• In another pan, place the butter in a pan or skillet and let it sit over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, pan fry the fish front and back until the fish is cooked and the nuts are a rich golden brown color.
• . Drizzle the sauce over the fillets. Generously add the fruit from the sauce and shredded coconut to the top of the mahi-mahi.

MAHI MAHI BARBADOS

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Plance the mahi mahi on a broiling rack. Coat with vegetable oil, then sprinkle with Cajun seasoning to taste. Let sit at least 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, gently toss together the mango, plum tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, onions, and jalapeno. Do not overmix.
• Broil the fish until cooked through without turning. As mahi mahi is a dense fish, this will take anywhere from 10-15 minutes.
• Just before serving the salsa, stir in the mint.
• Place a mound of jasmine rice in the center of a serving platter, surrounded with the fish, then garnish with half of the salsa. Put the remaining salsa in a bowl and pass.
