Mahi-Mahi with Remoulade

The Sweet Life By Sam Talbot

Made it,
Loved it.

Serving size 4

Do you know about rémoulade? If not, you're going to thank me. There are endless variations; Down South we turn it red with curry, and I've tasted it with pickles, horseradish, anchovies, capers — you name it. My own rendition adds some things that may surprise you, and it is the perfect seafood accompaniment. But don't stop there, you'll want to slather it on a cheeseburger or a grilled chicken sandwich, use it as a dip for veggies, and lots more.

Ingredients

Rémoulade

½ cup low-fat mayonnaise
½ cup low-fat plain yogurt
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
½ tsp hot sauce
1 celery rib, finely diced
3 scallion, thinly sliced
2 Tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 hard-boiled egg, coarsely chopped
1 Tbsp mustard seed
2 rinsed, chopped capers

Directions

To make the remoulade:

In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard, vinegar, hot sauce, celery, scallions, parsley, egg, mustard seeds, and capers. Mix with a rubber spatula until well combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving time.

Ingredients

Fish

4 (5 to 8 ounces each) mahi-mahi fillet
3 Tbsp olive oil
4 grated zest and juice of 4 lemons
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

To cook the fish:

Preheat an outdoor grill or a stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
Drizzle the mahi-mahi with the oil and sprinkle with three-quarters of the lemon zest and juice. Season generously with salt and pepper. Grill the mahi-mahi until it flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Transfer the grilled fish to a serving platter and sprinkle with the remaining zest and juice. Serve with the remoulade.
