Grilled Mahi with Cucumber & Clementine Salsa

IMG_7089This is another delicious recipe adapted from the Gwyneth Paltrow cookbook my dad bought me a few months ago, It’s All Good.  Easy and quick to make on a work night, and the flavors from the salsa were really satisfying.  It’s also an incredibly beautiful presentation and would be great for guests.

I served this with my lemon and garlic roasted broccoli and some roasted sweet potatoes with a sprinkling of cinnamon, salt and brown sugar, and finished under the broiler.  Yum!

What you’ll need: cucumber, clementines, red chili, red onion, cilantro, mint, lime, salt, Mahi and olive oil.

Combine the cucumbers, clementines, chili, onion, cilantro, mint and lime juice in a mixing bowl along with a healthy pinch of salt. Stir to combine and set aside.

Heat a grill or grill pan over high heat. Coat the fish with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Grill until firm to the touch and nicely browned, about 4 minutes on each side depending on the thickness.

Serve the fish with the salsa and extra lime wedges.
