Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (around 6 oz each) Mahi Mahi fillets
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven's broiler to high and position the rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Pat the Mahi Mahi fillets dry with a paper towel. Place them on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture evenly over both sides of the Mahi Mahi fillets.
Broil the Mahi Mahi fillets for 6-8 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The exact time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets. Remove from the oven and set aside to rest.
In a medium bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, chopped parsley, crumbled feta, the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and lemon zest. Toss gently to coat. Season with additional salt and black pepper to taste.
Plate the Mahi Mahi fillets and spoon the parsleyed tomato and feta mixture generously over the top of each piece.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as rice, quinoa, or a simple green salad.
