MAHI MAHI WITH BRAISED BRUSSELS SPROUTS
Makes for a beautiful (and healthy) presentation served on a platter...family-style. Recipe from "For Cod & Country" by Chef Barton Seaver who is a sustainable seafood advocate. Now a few words from Chef Barton: "I often pair the acidic bite of feta cheese with fish. In this recipe the cheese is mellowed out a bit by sweet butter and the meaty taste of the sprouts. This butter would also go great with shrimp and salmon."

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300°F.
- For the brussels sprouts, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter over high heat in a large saute pan. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the brussels sprouts and toss to combine. Continue to cook over high heat until the sprouts begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the water and season generously with salt. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium.
- Gently sear the mahi mahi fillets, skin side down, in a small, dry ovenproof saute pan over medium heat until they just begin to color, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the fish is an even color throughout, about 8 minutes.
- For the flavored butter, mix the feta cheese with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the parsley. Mash with a fork to combine, breaking up the feta as much as possible. Set aside.
- When the mahi mahi is done, uncover the sprouts and turn the heat up to high. When the liquid remaining in the pan has reduced enough to just barely coat the sprouts, remove from the heat and toss with freshly ground black pepper.
- Arrange the fillets and brussels sprouts on a platter and put a dollop of the feta butter on each of the mahi mahi fillets. Serve family style.

Tips:
- Mise en place: Prepare all ingredients and have them ready before you start cooking. This will make the process much smoother and faster.
- Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the final flavor of the dish.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too much food to the pan, it will not cook evenly and will become soggy. Cook in batches if necessary.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot or pan: This will help to distribute heat evenly and prevent the food from burning.
- Be patient: Braising takes time, but it is worth the wait. The longer the dish cooks, the more tender and flavorful it will become.
Conclusion:
Braised mahi-mahi and vegetables is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is simple to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a restaurant-quality meal in the comfort of your own home.
