Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 6-ounce mahi-mahi fillets (about 1 inch thick)
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons finely grated orange peel
3/4 cup fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 large shallot, chopped (about 1/3 cup)
1/2 teaspoon crumbled saffron threads
3/4 cup green olives, pitted, halved
3 oranges, peeled, cut into segments
1/3 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

This dish is a great way to use up leftover oranges. I always have a few oranges in my fridge and this is a great way to use them up.

This dish is so versatile. You can use any type of fish you like and you can adjust the sauce to your own taste. I like to add a little bit of honey to the sauce for a sweeter flavor.
