Another Mahi Mahi Recipe

[fauxklore]

This is particularly simple and reasonably quick.

Combine 1 T. honey, 3 T. soy sauce, 3 T. balsamic vinegar, 2 tsp grated ginger, 1 clove crushed garlic, and 1 T. olive oil in a shallow glass dish. Season two large mahi mahi filets with salt and pepper and place them in the dish. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes to marinate.

Heat 1 T. vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Remove fish from the dish, reserving marinade, and fry for about 5 minutes on each side, turning once, until fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove fish to a platter and keep warm.

Pour reserved marinade into the skillet. Heat over medium heat until reduced to a thick glaze consistency. Pour over fish and serve immediately.

I accompanied this with steamed Asian vegetables (snow peas, carrots, and mushrooms).

I should note that the original recipe called for more honey and less ginger. It's not the sort of thing one needs to be precise about.

Miriam -- we had a brief discussion about kitchen gadgets awhile back. Do you have a MicroPlane grater? I find it indispensable for ginger, zesting citrus and grating real parmesan.

I try to minimize the number of gadgets I have, but that does sound like it would be really useful. I've actually been putting my ginger through the garlic press.
