Vespa Mahi Mahi

6 oz Mahi Mahi filet

Flour

1/2 cup olive oil

1 tablespoon shallots, diced

1 clove garlic, diced

1 cup tomato sauce

Pinch salt

Pinch pepper

Pinch fresh oregano

2 leaves fresh basil, finely chopped

Splash dry white wine

5 count mussels (Prince Edward Island)

6 count large shrimp (20-25 per pound)

Choice of vegetable

---------------------------------------------------

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Dredge the filet in flour.

Heat half of the oil in a sautee pan until it is very hot.  Pan-sear the filet until it is crispy on both sides.

Move the pan into the oven and bake until the filet is cooked all the way through, about 8 minutes.

Heat the rest of the olive oil in a second pan.  Add the salt, pepper, shallots, garlic, oregano, basil, tomato sauce, and wine, and stir to combine.  

Add the mussels and shrimp and saute for about 3 minutes.

Move the pan into the oven with the filet and bake for another 4 minutes.

Place the filet on the plate and arrange the mussels and shrimp around it using tongs.  Top with the tomato, herb, and wine mixture, add a side of vegetables, and serve.

-----------------------------------------------------

Side of vegetables:

You can serve this with any of your choice of vegetable, but we suggest a combination of broccoli and carrots with roasted potatoes.  The potatoes can even be done head of time and stored in the refrigerator; simply bake them for 3-4 minutes before serving to make sure they are warm and crispy.

----------------------------------------------------

Roasted potatoes:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Slice one Yukon gold potato into wedges.

Boil a pot of water; add the potato wedges and boil for about 5 minutes.  

Drain the potatoes and toss in a bowl with olive oil, diced garlic, salt, and fresh herbs, then bake on a cookie sheet in the oven for about 15 minutes.  

Sautee the broccoli and carrots in a pan with olive oil and garlic until cooked to taste.
