GRILLED MAHI MAHI TACO, RED CABBAGE SLAW, TOMATO AVOCADO SALSA,



Grilled Mahi Mahi Taco, Red Cabbage Slaw, Tomato Avocado Salsa, image

Grilled Mahi Mahi Tacos With Red Cabbage Slaw, Tomato And Avocado Salsa And Pineapple Hot Sauce is the whole name for this lovely recipe. Created by Bobby Flay for a wedding on FoodNetwork, and it was a big hit with all the guests at the wedding. I wanted to share this lovely recipe with you all. It took me about 3 hrs. to make this dish, but it is well worth it! Be careful when making the Charred Pineapple-Habanero Hot Sauce using the the habanero chiles, as it is HOT with 2! I would suggest only 1 if you don't like real hot and spicy.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 39

2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 serrano chile, seeded and roughly chopped
2 tablespoons pine nuts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
2 ripe Hass avocados, halved, pitted and diced
2 tablespoons lime juice
3 plum tomatoes, halved
Canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons chipotles in adobo
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small Spanish onion, roughly chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon dried Mexican oregano
1 cup 2-percent or nonfat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons clover honey
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup canola oil
2 cups thinly sliced Napa cabbage
2 cups thinly sliced red cabbage
1 large carrot, peeled and grated on the large holes of a box grater
3 tablespoons ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Four 8-ounce mahi mahi fillets
Canola oil, for brushing
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6-inch flour or corn tortillas
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
6 leaves Boston lettuce, for wrapping

Steps:

  • For the relish: Put the garlic, pine nuts, serrano and some salt in a mortar and pestle and mash to a chunky, pesto-like consistency. Add the cilantro and continue to mash; the pesto should be very coarse.
  • Put the avocados and lime juice in a bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Gently fold in the pesto until just combined, being careful not to mash the avocado too much.
  • For the crema: Heat a grill to high. Toss the tomato halves with some canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until the tomatoes are charred and softened, turning once or twice, about 5 minutes total.
  • Combine the grilled tomatoes, vinegar and chipotles in a food processor and pulse a few times to combine. Add the garlic, onions, cilantro, oregano and some salt and pepper and pulse until slightly smooth.
  • Put the yogurt in a medium bowl and swirl in some of the salsa, being careful not to stir it in completely.
  • For the slaw: Put the lemon juice, orange juice, honey, mustard, basil and some salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, drizzle in the canola oil until emulsified.
  • Combine the Napa cabbage, red cabbage and carrot in a large bowl; add half of the dressing and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper; add more dressing if needed, reserving a little for fish.
  • For the rub: Combine the ancho powder, cinnamon, cumin, salt, brown sugar and black pepper in a bowl. Mix to blend.
  • For the fish: Brush the top of the fish filets with canola oil, and sprinkle them with salt, pepper and about 3 tablespoons of the spice rub. Let stand for 5 minutes, then grill the filets, spice-side down, over direct heat until the fish is lightly charred and comes away from the grill easily, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook another 2 minutes to sear on the reverse side. Move the fish over indirect heat, cover the grill, and cook until the fish is just cooked through, another 3 to 4 minutes; the fish should be just firm when squeezed lightly on the sides. Remove the fish to a platter and let rest for a few minutes.
  • While the fish rests, grill the tortillas over direct heat until slightly charred and just warm, about 5 seconds per side. With a fork, flake the fish into large chunks. Drizzle with the remaining slaw dressing and top with cilantro leaves.
  • Serve the fish family-style with the tortillas and butter lettuce (for wrapping), and the avocado relish, tomato crema, and cabbage slaw in bowls on the side.
