1394. MAHI MAHI wrapped in BACON with LEMON MAYONNAISE

serves two


2 7-ounce mahi mahi fillets
1 sprig fresh rosemary, leaves removed and chopped
zest and juice of 1 lemon
4 slices bacon
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
pepper

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Season the fish fillets with pepper, rosemary, and lemon zest. Wrap two pieces of bacon around each fillet. Warm an iron skillet over medium heat, and pour the olive oil in. When it is hot, set the filets in. Cook for 1 minute. Flip the fish and then transfer the skillet to the oven and cook 10 minutes. Meanwhile, mix together the lemon and mayonnaise. Adjust the amount of lemon to taste. You might only need the juice of half a lemon. Season with pepper. Remove the fish from the pan, drizzle with lemon-mayonnaise, and serve.
