Baked Mahi-Mahi with Bulgur
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 Mahi-Mahi fillets (6 oz each)
- 1 cup bulgur
- 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 lemon, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Rinse the bulgur under cold water and drain.
- In a saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the bulgur and stir to coat with the spices.
- Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the bulgur is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- While the bulgur is cooking, place the Mahi-Mahi fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Season the fillets with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Place a slice of lemon on top of each fillet.
- Bake the Mahi-Mahi in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- Fluff the cooked bulgur with a fork and stir in the chopped parsley.
- Serve the baked Mahi-Mahi over a bed of bulgur, and garnish with additional lemon slices if desired. Enjoy!
