Fish is one of my favorite proteins – quick to cook, adaptable, delicious, low fat. Does it get any better? This is one of my standards for a quick fish dinner that you can whip up in no time, and I don’t have any time, lately, not even today on my birthday.
Ingredients:
- 2 4oz mahi mahi fillets
- 1 small head bok choy
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp dark rice vinegar
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger root
Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 325F. Bring water in a large pot to a boil. Meanwhile slice garlic cloves and chop ginger and spread on mahi mahi fillets.
2. Wrap fish in foil packets and bake for 15 minutes.
3. Meanwhile roughly chop bok choy and drop into boiling water. Boil for 3 to 5 minutes. Don’t over-boil!
4. Drain bok choy, then toss with soy sauce and vinegar and arrange on a plate. Top with fish fillets. Enjoy!
What is your favorite way to enjoy fish? And which fish do you love best?










Delicious doesn’t mean difficult! This looks and sounds amazing!
Thanks!
And I agree, simple is often best.
Happy birthday, Kiri! I do hope you get some time soon to relax and enjoy! I’ve never cooked mahi mahi, but I’ve had some on fish tacos, and it’s great — this look delish too!
Thank you so much!
We’ll see – moving on Saturday, so we’re just packing whenever we get a minute.
I am going to give this a try with our salmon tonight, looks yummy.
Thank you! I am sure salmon will be great with this.
I love what you did with the Mahi! My favorite is Salmon on a cedar plank over the grill brushed with some butter and lemon. Simple and delicious!
Thank you!
Oh, I love planked salmon
I could eat a bushel of this bok choy!
Meee too!
Happy Birthday dear Kiri! This looks like a really hearty dish to share on your birthday…Thanks! Will try this very soon =)
Thank you so much!
Happy birthday, Kiri! I hope you’re having a great day! I love mahi mahi and I’ve never prepared it this way – looks fantastic.
Thank you Jessica!
Fabulous recipe! I love bok choy and I love mahi mahi. So healthy and filling. Happy Birthday!!!
Thanks! Bok choy is one of my favorite things in the world.
Really like both Mahi Mahi and bok choy – what a great combination! Great photos, also! Allen.
Thank you very much!
Looks like a delish recipe with not too many ingredients! I may have to try this one!
If you do, let me know what you think!
I made a recipe similar to this a few month ago and it was an immediate hit. I had forgotten about it thought until I read your post. Mine didn’t have the addition of the bok choy, and I’m really loving everything about this! Well done!
Thank you!
I am glad to hear your version was a success, too!
Delicious and so healthy! I love mahi and I always have such a hard time finding it around here!
Thanks! Agreed, it’s a wonderful fish
I find it frozen a lot, surprisingly.
Happy belated birthday, Kiri!
I love this simple, no frills type recipes. Less mess to clean up too
Looks delicious! and so healthy!
Thank you! I love getting fancy in the kitchen, but often simply don’t have time for frills.
KIRI!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR THE 9TH!! I am so sorry I am a day late… I hope you had a perfect day. Guess what we are alike my friend… my birthday is tomorrow.
Let’s have a cheer for May girls every where!!
PS… love the dish… I would eat it on my birthday too.
Well done.
Thank you!
I hope you’ll have a glorious day tomorrow, then! My wife is May 20th (and my mom and my grandma and my grandaunt…all May ladies).
Really?? Who would have thought!
Haha, thanks!
Belated happy birthday, Kiri! This recipe sounds amazing…I adore Asian flavors with my fish..and this dish sounds like something I’d order at a restaurant. Now I must make it at home
Thank you so much Liz!
High praise, thank you so much!
Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag Kiri and we hope that you had a fantastic day! Looks delish and is super simple.
Thanks and Cheers:)
Dankeschoen!
Happy (be-lated) Birthday, Kiri! Hope your move goes well. And I quite love this recipe – if I’m going to eat fish at all, mahi-mahi is one of the three that I like. I’ll bet this would be awesome on the grill; I think I’ll try the sauce as a marinade before grilling it. Thanks so much for sharing it!
Thank you! All moved, it went very well thanks to wonderful friends.
My pleasure!
I just picked up some mahi mahi yesterday! I’m giving this a try today!
Ooh, how did you like it?
