Mahi Mahi Barbados

Dr. Jenny's Note:

DH and I enjoyed this fruity salsa with our mahi mahi. This recipe is from my "The New Legal Seafoods" cookbook. Prep time includes marinating time.

• Total Time: 50 mins
• Prep Time: 30 mins
• Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 1 ½-2 lbs mahi mahi
• vegetable oil
• cajun seasoning , to taste
• 1 cup mango , diced into 1/4 inch pieces
• 1 cup plum tomato , diced
• 1⁄3;-½ cup olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (can also use lime juice)
• 1 cup red onion , diced
• 2 -3 tablespoons jalapenos , seeded, minced
• 2 -3 tablespoons fresh mint , julienned (can also use a mixture of mint and tarragon)
• jasmine rice

Directions:

1. Preheat the broiler.
2. 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.
3. Meanwhile, gently toss together the mango, plum tomatoes, olive oil, lemon juice, onions, and jalapeno. Do not overmix.
4. Broil the fish until cooked through without turning. As mahi mahi is a dense fish, this will take anywhere from 10-15 minutes.
5. Just before serving the salsa, stir in the mint.
6. 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.
