Grilled Mahi Mahi Fillets And Asparagus With Orange And Sesame Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat to medium high. Slightly oil grate to prevent fish from sticking. Season mahi mahi with salt and pepper. Combine lime juice, soy sauce, ginger paste and oil mix well. Place mahi mahi in plastic bag and add marinade. Marinade for 20-30 minutes. Grill for 6 - 8 minutes on each side.
• Meanwhile drain marinade into sauce pan. Bring to a boil and reduce until reduced by half. Add brown sugar and butter.
• Plate mahi mahi with sauced drizzled on top.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the mahi-mahi with salt and pepper. Coat in 1/4 cup of the Cuban Style Orange Citrus Vinaigrette in a shallow bowl or baking dish. Let marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the bacon to a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring, until crispy, about 4 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon pieces, leaving the drippings in the pan. Add the peppers and onions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the rice, 2 cups water, cumin and a large pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer, cover and reduce the heat. Cook until the rice is tender and the all water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the beans and bacon pieces.
• Brush the grill grates generously with oil. Place the fish on the grill, rounded-side down, and leave it until you can lift the fish without it sticking to the grill and there are distinct grill marks, about 5 minutes. (Test it by gently lifting a corner -- if it sticks, cook it a bit longer and try again.) Carefully turn the fish over and cook until firm to the touch, about another 5 minutes.
• Divide the rice and beans among 4 plates. Top each with a piece of mahi-mahi. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette. Sprinkle with crushed plantains and serve each with a lime quarter.

Steps:

• Preheat a gas grill for medium-high heat (450 degrees F (230 degrees C)) and lightly oil the grate.
• Combine the paprika, oregano, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne in a small bowl. Brush mahi mahi fillets with olive oil on both sides and season with the spice mixture.
• Grill on the hot grill until golden, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Drizzle with lemon juice and serve.

Steps:

• Fish: Preheat grill pan to over medium high to high heat.
• Season mahi mahi fillets with salt and pepper.
• Combine the lime juice, dark soy, ginger and a little vegetable or canola oil in a shallow dish.
• Turn the mahi mahi in the citrus soy marinade and let it hang out for 10 minutes.
• Grill on hot grill pan for 6 minutes per side for a 1-inch fillet or until fish is firm and opaque.
• Asparagus: Take 1 spear of asparagus and hold it at each and. Bend the asparagus until it snaps and breaks. Use this spear as your guide on where to trim the ends of your bundle of spears.
• Using a peeler, make thin long strips of orange zest from both oranges.
• Cut the ends off the zested oranges and stand them up right on a cutting board.
• Remove the pith in strips using sharp knife and cutting down from the top of the orange. Discard the pith.
• When the oranges are both peeled and trimmed, turn them on their sides and slice into 1/4-inch rounds, cross sectioning the whole.
• Set the orange disks aside.
• In a skillet with a cover, bring 1-inch water to a boil with the zest of the oranges and grated fresh gingerroot.
• Allow the orange zest and ginger to simmer for at least 1 minute then add salt and asparagus spears.
• Simmer the spears 3 to 5 minutes until just tender.
• Drain the asparagus.
• Discard the orange zest and ginger.
• Assemble a few spears on each dinner plate, layering them back and forth, crisscrossing the spears over orange slices.
• Sprinkle sesame seeds over asparagus and oranges and top with 1 portion of grilled mahi mahi.
• Garnish assembled fish and asparagus with chopped or thinly sliced chives.

Steps:

• Combine orange, red pepper, scallions, red onion, and cilantro. Add orange juice, syrup, lime juice, and olive oil. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Grill the fish fillets for 4 minutes on each side and top with salsa.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Spread the almonds on a rimmed baking sheet and broil, stirring frequently, until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Combine the toasted almonds, 2 tablespoons olive oil, the lemon juice, honey, mustard, 1/4 cup water, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the parsley.
• Toss the asparagus with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon water, the lemon zest, and salt and pepper to taste on the same baking sheet. Spread in a single layer and broil until the asparagus is bright green and crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
• Sprinkle the fish with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and arrange on the same baking sheet, rounded side down; broil until opaque, about 3 minutes. Turn the fillets, brush with some of the almond sauce and continue broiling until just firm and cooked through, 3 to 5 more minutes. Divide the fish and asparagus among plates and top with the remaining almond sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a shallow baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Pat mahi mahi dry with paper towels. Drizzle with sesame oil, and season with garlic pepper. Press grated ginger and toasted sesame seeds onto both sides of the fish to coat. Place fish on the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• In a 1 gallon zipper bag, combine all ingredients except fish. Squish to combine. Add mahi and seal, refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• OAMC - squeeze all air out of zipper bag, or seal in a vacuum sealer and store in the freezer. Defrost and grill, following instructions below.
• Spray grill with non-stick cooking spray, the preheat to 475°F Cook fillets about 4 minutes on the first side, then turn and cook another 2-3 minutes, depending on thickness. Trust yourself on the grill, based on the thickness of your fillets - don't blindly use my timing! An overcooked fish is a sad fish.

Steps:

• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Place mahi mahi in an aluminum foil pan, and toss with the garlic to coat. Distribute butter evenly throughout pan. Spread onions over fish. Pour the lemon juice, wine, and diced tomatoes with green chile peppers over the fish. Season with salt and pepper. Tightly cover pan with aluminum foil.
• Place pan on the grill grate, and cook fish 35 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork. Sprinkle with cheese before serving.
