Submitted by likethebird

"Simple and easy, but tasty and special enough for guests. Designed this recipe to be healthy and low calorie while I was trying to shed a few pounds. You can add extra EVOO to suit your tastes."

 

• Ready In: 30mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 12 ounces mahi mahi fillets (2 fillets, 6oz each)
• 1 red bell pepper, cubed
• 1⁄2 yellow bell pepper, cubed
• 3 garlic cloves, chopped
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1⁄4 cup white wine
• 1⁄4 cup feta cheese (I use reduced fat)
• salt
• fresh coarse ground black pepper
• lemon juice
• cooking spray

directions

1. Preheat the oven to the broil setting and line a baking tray with aluminum foil and then coat with nonstick spray.
2. Place the peppers and garlic on the prepared tray and roast for 8-10 minutes, or until slightly browned.
3. Put the roasted veggies, EVOO, white wine, some slat and pepper into the food processor/blender. Puree until smooth.
4. Transfer sauce to a small sauce pan and simmer over low heat.
5. Meanwhile, heat the grill (or stove top grill pan) to medium high heat. Season the fillets with salt, pepper and lemon juice (I use the bottled kind, because I usually have that on hand).
6. Grill the fish for 5-8 minutes per side, or until flaky.
7. Top the grilled Mahi Mahi with the pepper sauce and then feta cheese.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy, preferably with roasted italian veggies and a glass of white wine!

Made this for Spring PAC 2011. It was quite tasty. I followed the directions and I cooked the fish on my stove top grill pan. Such an easy dish. I served this with your recipe Eggplant, Roasted Red Pepper and Brie Pasta #436443. I followed the instructions and even at the end I followed them by serving us a glass of white wine!
