Mahimahi with Bacon Tomato Butter
Mahimahi with Bacon-Tomato Butter
based on this Cooking Light recipe
Yield: 4 servings
2 cups water
1 tablespoon fine sea salt
2 teaspoons sugar
4 (6-ounce) mahimahi fillets
Cooking spray
1/4 teaspoon table salt, divided
2 slices center-cut bacon, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon hot smoked paprika
1 large tomato, seeded and diced
2 tablespoons butter
1. Combine first 3 ingredients in a shallow dish, stirring until sea salt and sugar dissolve; add fish. Let stand 20 minutes. Drain; pat dry.
2. Preheat broiler. Sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon table salt evenly over fish. Lightly coat fish with cooking spray. Place fish, skin side up on a cookie sheet. Broil 5 minutes, flip, and broil 5-7 minutes more or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
4. Heat a small skillet over medium heat; add bacon to pan. Cook 5 minutes or until bacon is almost crisp, stirring occasionally. Add garlic; cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add paprika, and cook for 20 seconds, stirring constantly. Add tomatoes, and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in butter. Remove from heat; stir in remaining 1/8 teaspoon table salt. Place 1 fillet on each of 4 plates; top each serving with about 2 tablespoons tomato mixture.
I’m “dog-earring” this one (aka bookmarking it under my “to-make folder” and will most likely make this next week. It looks delicious and fish, bacon, tomatoes, and butter are three of our favorite things, I’ve just never had them all together.
Looks divine pumpkin!
Sounds incredible. You definitely can’t go wrong with bacon, tomatoes, and butter!
Ok, so now we have to have your slow cooker ribs and this fish while we are at the beach. Yum
