How to Make Mahi Mahi With A Pear And Jalapeno Chutney

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 medium yellow onion, chopped.
  2. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute until softened.
  3. Add 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1/4 cup dry white wine, 2 tablespoons sugar, and the zest of 1 lemon.
  4. Cook over high heat, stirring frequently, until the juices are reduced by half (about 5-7 minutes).
  5. Stir in 1 ripe pear, cored and diced.
  6. Continue cooking over medium-high heat until the pears are tender but still hold their shape (5-10 minutes).
  7. Remove from heat and transfer the mixture to a bowl. Let cool completely.
  8. Stir in 2 green onions, thinly sliced, 1 jalapeño, finely minced (remove seeds for less heat), 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper, and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint.
  9. Cut mahi mahi fillets crosswise into 1-inch thick pieces, if necessary.
  10. Lightly brush the mahi mahi fillets with olive oil.
  11. Broil or grill the fillets for 3-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Do not turn the fish more than once.
  12. Remove from heat and top each serving with at least 1 tablespoon of the chutney.
