    Ingredients

    • 4 6-oz of Mahi Mahi filets or any other white fish salt you want
    • Salt and pepper as desired
    • 2 tablespoons of ghee or cooking oil of choice
    • 4 garlic cloves, minced
    • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
    • 1 cup coconut milk
    • 2 teaspoons of dijon mustard
    • 1/2 teaspoon of chilli pepper flakes
    • 2 cups of baby spinach
    • 1 handful of tarragon, chopped fine

    Method

    • Using the instructions on the package, boil water and cook the pasta.
    • After patting the Mahi Mahi filets dry, sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.
    • To prepare this dish, in a nonstick skillet, heat about a tablespoon of ghee over medium heat. The Mahi Mahi should be pan-fried for three to four minutes per side, based on the thickness of the fish. Using a paper towel, take out the fish from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes while you check the pasta.
    • In the same skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of ghee along with the garlic minced. Over medium-high heat, cook for one minute, stirring constantly.
    • Add sun-dried tomatoes, red pepper flakes, coconut milk, and dijon mustard or lemon juice can all be added. While the mixture is heating, scrape the bottom gently.
    • Add spinach as soon as the sauce starts boiling. Let the spinach wilt and cook for a few minutes.
    • After the pasta has been cooked, transfer it directly to the pan with tongs, transferring some water along with it. Toss everything together with the tarragon thoroughly.
    • Place the pasta in bowls, served coated in creamy sun-dried tomato sauce, with Mahi Mahi fillets on top. It should be served immediately.
