Mahi Mahi Rockefeller

(46)

My family loves oysters Rockefeller. I wanted an option that would be available any time of the year, so I came up with this mahi mahi version. It was a hit and is now requested frequently. This also works well with other firm white fish, salmon, or tuna. Excellent served with twice-baked potatoes and steamed green beans.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 pound bacon

  • 4 (6 ounce) mahi mahi fillets

  • 1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste

  • 1 pinch ground black pepper, or to taste

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained

  • 6 green onions, chopped

  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped

  • ¼ cup evaporated milk, plus more as needed

  • 2 dashes hot pepper sauce, or to taste

  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese

  • ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Cook bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate and chop when cool enough to handle.

  2. Season mahi mahi with garlic salt and pepper.

  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook mahi mahi in the hot skillet until it flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.

  4. While the mahi mahi is cooking, melt butter in a separate skillet. Stir in spinach, green onions, and garlic; cook and stir until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in chopped bacon, evaporated milk, and hot pepper sauce; bring to a low simmer. Add Monterey Jack cheese, a little at a time, stirring until fully melted. Stir in more evaporated milk if needed, to create a sauce.

  5. Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.

  6. Transfer fillets to a baking dish. Divide spinach sauce evenly over fillets and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

  7. Broil in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and is lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
