• porções: 4

Ingredientes

4 mahi mahi fillets

2 tbsp olive oil

1/4 cup unsalted butter

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 lemon, juiced and zested

1/4 cup white wine (or chicken broth)

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Instruções

Season the mahi mahi fillets with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the fillets and cook for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter and minced garlic, cooking for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.

Add the lemon juice, zest, and white wine to the pan. Stir to combine and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Return the mahi mahi to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the fish. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Serve with rice, steamed vegetables, or a crisp salad.
