This recipe combines succulent Mahi Mahi fillets with a flavorful olive and bell pepper couscous. The fish is seasoned with paprika, then seared and baked to perfection, while the couscous is cooked with garlic, bell pepper, and olives for a vibrant Mediterranean-inspired side dish.
Ingredients: 2 Mahi Mahi fillets. 1 cup couscous. 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth. 1 red bell pepper, diced. 1/2 cup pitted olives, sliced. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 teaspoon paprika. Salt and pepper to taste. Fresh parsley for garnish.
Instructions: Warm the oven up to 190C 375F. Salt and pepper should be added to Mahi Mahi fillets. Put 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a pan and heat it over medium-low heat. Mahi Mahi fillets should be seared for two to three minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown. Place the skillet in an oven that has already been heated up. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the fish is flaky when tested with a fork. In a different pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-low heat. When you add the diced bell pepper and minced garlic, saut until the pepper gets soft. After adding the couscous and olives, swirl them in. Then add the chicken or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat and cover. Let it cook on low heat for 5 minutes, or until the couscous is soft and the liquid is gone. Fork the couscous and taste to see if the seasoning needs to be changed. Place the Mahi Mahi fillets on top of the couscous with olives and bell peppers. Add fresh parsley on top of the fish. Have fun!
