Mahi Mahi With Citrus (Phase 1)

Description
Mahi mahi is a sturdy fish that stands up well to pan or grill cooking. Whatever way you choose to cook it, the tangy citrus and toasty garlic flavors will come through beautifully. Turn leftovers into Mahi Mahi Salad by adding chopped cucumber and scallion and one or two teaspoons of mayo; on later Phases, you can serve it on a crisp slice of whole-grain toast.
