Directions
Print Recipe- Finely chop the garlic and slice the lemon in half if not already done.
- Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Pat the fish dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper.
- Place the fish, skin-side down, in the skillet and sear for about 4 to 6 minutes on each side, approximately 10 minutes per inch of fish thickness. Once the fish is done, remove it from the skillet.
- In the same skillet, craft a pan sauce by reducing the heat to medium. Add half of the minced garlic, half of the lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Next, incorporate 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt while scraping the bottom of the pan to release the browned bits. Once combined, drizzle the pan sauce over the cooked fish.
- In the same skillet, prepare the braised spinach by reducing the heat to medium-low. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of butter, the remaining minced garlic, the remaining lemon juice, pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir for 30 seconds, then add the spinach and bone broth. Let it braise for 2 to 3 minutes until the spinach is wilted, and the liquid is reduced.
- Serve the Mahi Mahi with the drizzled pan sauce, accompanied by the flavorful braised spinach.
