Total Time: 20 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 1/2 lbs mahi mahi fillets, bones and skin removed
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Recipe

• 1 heat olive oil in a large oven proof skillet over medium high heat.
• 2 preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• 3 season both sides of fish with salt and pepper.
• 4 dredge only one side of each fillet in the cilantro.
• 5 place fish, cilantro side down, into the hot olive oil, being careful not to crowd the pan.
• 6 cook until cilantro is crisp, checking often not to burn. (i check after 1 minute, then every 30 seconds after that.).
• 7 turn fish over, then place in preheated oven.
• 8 bake for 3-5 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
• 9 if you do not have a large oven proof skillet, you can cook fish a couple of fillets at a time, then transfer to a baking dish to finish cooking. you can use less oil or nonstick spray if using a nonstick pan, just remember to add more before adding more fish. add extra cooking time since the dish is not preheated.
