This recipe is excellent! My man never had mahi-mahi and was thoroughly impressed. Since I made 2 servings I didn't bother to open a can of tomato paste to use such a small amount. I didn't miss it a bit. THANK YOU!

This was a very tasty dish. I really enjoyed the onion tomato mixture with the fish. The feta and lemon are a must so don't skip them.

Oh wow! This is a great way to make fish. Made as written, except that I grilled the fish for 4 minutes each side. The tomato sauce is superb. I spooned the sauce over the fish to serve. Forgot to add the feta before I did the photo.

Everyone loved this recipe (even the kids). I served it with mashed cauliflower and it was great. I used a little more tomato sauce than it called for and used cherry tomatoes cut in half. We grilled the fish instead of broiling it and it turned out great. Loved the sauce and I agree that it looks like an impressive dish when you present it on the table. Will make this one again for sure.

My husband and I loved this recipe. It is a definite keeper! I cut the recipe in half for the two of us, used 1.5 shallots instead of onion and half a can of drained diced tomatoes (no fresh on hand). It turned out beautifully! The topping would be delicious on so many things, it is really impressive looking too! Thanks!
