Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Mahi Mahi fillets
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 cloves Garlic, finely minced
- 3 tablespoons Sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg, beaten
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 pound Asparagus, finely chopped
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 3 stalks Scallions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Honey
Instructions
Pat the Mahi Mahi fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a shallow dish, combine the minced garlic, sesame seeds, and all-purpose flour.
Dip each Mahi Mahi fillet into the beaten egg, then coat it evenly with the garlic sesame mixture.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the crust is golden brown and the Mahi Mahi is cooked through. Set aside and keep warm.
To make the asparagus relish, heat the olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped asparagus and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until just tender.
Stir in the diced red bell pepper and sliced scallions. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, just to soften the vegetables slightly.
Remove from heat and toss the vegetables with lemon juice, soy sauce, and honey to create a tangy, flavorful relish.
Divide the Mahi Mahi fillets among serving plates. Top each fillet with a generous spoonful of the asparagus relish.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
