Lemon Pepper Mahi Mahi

Has anyone else noticed that the price for seafood has more then doubled in the last 6-8 months?! This really throws a wrench in my love of recipes with shrimp or in my favorite salmon dish with sauteed asparagus. I just cannot justify paying 30-40$ for a bag of shrimp that I got not too long ago for 14$ so I have been doing without but this past week I just had to have seafood of some sort so I was searching the seafood aisle when I found some Mahi Mahi for less than an arm and a leg.

I grabbed some asparagus and I decided I would try Lemon Pepper seasoning with my mahi mahi and boy was it a good decision! Simple - 3 ingredients and about 6-7 minutes in a pan.



Lemon Pepper Mahi Mahi: Serves 2

2 Fillets of Mahi Mahi - about 6 oz. Each
1tsp Lemon Pepper Seasoning
2tsp Olive Oil

First - put a skillet over medium heat and add the oil to the pan. While the pan heats up sprinkle the seasoning over both sides of the filets. Now put the fillets in a single layer in the pan and cook for approximately 3-4 minutes then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Remove from the pan, serve and enjoy!

I personally recommend serving with some sauteed or roasted asparagus (I just tossed my asparagus in the skillet once the mahi mahi was finished with some olive oil) and simple brown rice cooked in water with a splash of olive oil and some salt.
