Mahi Mahi with Feta Cream Sauce


Easiest dinner ever.

Feta is one of my favorite cheese, along with goat cheese!   This is a great easy way to fancy up some fish for a quick week night dinner.  We often have frozen fish in the freezer (thanks to Costco), and Mahi Mahi is one of our favorites.  This would also work for halibut, tilapia and even salmon.  It's quite possible that this would be great on chicken breasts too, but I haven't tried that yet.

Ingredients

Makes 2

  • 2- 6 oz mahi mahi fillets
  • 3 Tbsp mayonnaise (like Best Foods)
  • 3 Tbsp of crumbled feta
  • 1/4 tsp of dried dill
  • 1/4 tsp of garlic powder
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • Fresh black pepper
  • 1 tsp minced parsley (optional)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

On a foil lined pan, coat with oil and place fish fillets on top.

Make mixture of the mayo, feta, dill, garlic, lemon juice, pepper and parsley.  Make sure to mix well and get most of the lumps out.

Cover the entire top of the fish with the mixture, put on the top rack of the oven and cook 10-12 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish. Mine took 14 minutes but they were very thick filets.

Here they are after baking, some of the sauce fell off, but it still plated up nicely.


Here's another recipe that is something a bit similar, Baked Parmesan Salmon. Try that too!
