GINGER GLAZED MAHI

This is a great way to make fish. This will work with any dense fish like salmon or mahi mahi or even tuna. I like to do this in the winter when I can't get to my snow covered grill. A great wine to pair with this is a pinot noir--I'm partial to Schug.

Yield 4

3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
1 clove garlic, crushed or to taste
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 (6 ounce) mahi mahi fillets
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Directions 1. In a shallow glass dish, stir together the honey, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, ginger, garlic and olive oil. Season fish fillets with salt and pepper, and place them into the dish. If the fillets have skin on them, place them skin side down. Cover, and refrigerate for 20 minutes to marinate. 2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove fish from the dish, and reserve marinade. Fry fish for 4 to 6 minutes on each side, turning only once, until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Spoon glaze over fish, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest mahi-mahi you can find. Look for fish that is firm and has a mild, sweet smell.
  • Make sure the ginger is peeled and finely minced. This will help it distribute its flavor evenly throughout the glaze.
  • Don't overcook the fish. Mahi-mahi is a delicate fish, so it cooks quickly. Overcooking will make it tough and dry.
  • Serve the fish immediately. Ginger-glazed mahi-mahi is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Ginger-glazed mahi-mahi is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The ginger glaze gives the fish a sweet and savory flavor, and the flaky texture of the mahi-mahi pairs perfectly with the crispy glaze. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
