Ingredients

Directions
1
Preheat oven to 375 deg F.2
Heat butter in small skillet on medium heat.3
Add garlic and heat for 1 minute.4
Add honey, worcestershire and mustard, cook for an additional minute.5
Add lemon juice and allow to cool in refrigerator for 10 minutes, or until mixture is thick.6
Chop scallions and basil.7
Cut fish into 2oz portions.8
Pinch a piece of foil so that it has four raised edges to trap the sauce.9
Arrange fish on oiled/greased aluminum foil.10
Spread all of sauce mixture over top of each portion.11
Top sparingly with basil and scalions.12
Sprinkle salt and pepper.13
Roast in oven for 10-15 minutes, depending on thickness of fish (15 minutes per inch thickness for fully cooked), or until desired. If using Ahi, I prefer to cook for 10 minites to allow inside to remain raw.14

Perhaps this wasn't so special because I didn't have fresh fish. It was good, but not great. My sauce never thickened, despite pouring it into another dish and putting it in the fridge for 15 minutes. I think it would be better with more honey and more green onions.

This recipe was rated by my wife as OMG...a "keeper". Specifically, I cut two "fresh", not previously frozen, 6 oz. Mahi filets into 2" squares and prepared by the this recipe. I did not add the fresh basil, or any basil for that matter, and it turned out perfect! I added sides of steamed asparagus with crumbled bacon and grated parmesan, and rice pilaf for a fantastic Mahi recipe. Definitely a "do-over"!!

This is now one of my wife's favorite dishes. I didn't have fresh basil, so we used dry, but it was still very good. While I'm not raving about it quite as much as she, I did like the sweet and sour effect. I followed the previous reviewer's advice and added more honey, and I think that was a good move.

I selected this recipe for cooking mahi mahi because it looked good, but more importantly I had all the ingredients at home. It was delicious! The flavors blended very well with the Mahi, and it was a very simple recipe to make. I will definitely be cooking this one again!
