Soft Mahi Mahi Tacos with Ginger-Lime Dressing

A warm, flavorful dish filled with mahi-mahi, fresh fruit and an exotic ginger-lime dressing. Unique, yet tasteful, this recipe is inspired by the fresh seafood recipes in Mexico and Central America. I serve chips and salsa on the side.

Ingredients

• ⅓ cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced
• 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 jalapeno pepper, minced
• 1 dash cayenne pepper
• 1 cup diced fresh pineapple
• 6 (3 ounce) fillets mahi mahi fillets
• 1 large mango - peeled, seeded and diced
• 6 (6 inch) flour tortillas, warmed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the mahi-mahi with salt and pepper. Cook the fillets in the hot oil until the fish is golden brown on each side, and no longer translucent in the center, about 3 minutes per side.

Step 2

Meanwhile, whisk together the sour cream, lime juice, ginger, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper to taste; set aside. Gently combine the mango, pineapple, avocado, and jalapeno in a bowl.

Step 3

To assemble, place a cooked mahi-mahi fillet into the center of a warmed tortilla. Place a scoop of the mango salsa onto the fish, then drizzle with the sour cream sauce, and finish with a generous pinch of chopped cilantro.
