Stuffed Mahi Mahi Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the stuffing

   In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

2. 2

   Mix stuffing ingredients

   In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed vegetables with lobster, blue crab, panko breadcrumbs, heavy cream, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well until combined.

3. 3

   Prepare the Mahi Mahi

   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the mahi mahi fillets on a clean surface and season with salt and pepper. Carefully cut a pocket into each fillet for the stuffing.

4. 4

   Stuff the fillets

   Spoon the lobster-blue crab stuffing into each pocket of the mahi mahi fillets, pressing gently to secure.

5. 5

   Pan-sear the fish

   In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the stuffed fillets and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

6. 6

   Oven roast

   Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

7. 7

   Prepare Citrus Beurre Blanc

   In a saucepan, combine lemon juice with a bit of water and bring to a simmer. Slowly whisk in cold butter until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

8. 8

   Serve

   Plate the stuffed mahi mahi and drizzle with the citrus beurre blanc. Garnish with fresh parsley.
