Simple. Tasty. Healthy.

Fresh Mahi Tomato Pasta with Herbs

There are many nights during the week when I want a simple dinner I know is good for me. Just because it's simple and healthy doesn't mean that it has to  be flavorless. I use a lot of fresh herbs in my healthy dishes so I don't a lot of salt or any other unhealthy ingredients to make it tastier. This dish takes under a half an hour and even though it's healthy you still feel satisfied after you've finished your dinner. Keep in mind that fish fuels your body if you are on a low carb diet. Although, we are eating pasta along side this dish, that's just it, the serving size of the pasta is very small like a side would be, but the combo of fish and pasta will give you energy. This is obviously a great meal if you know you're going to need energy for your day tomorrow.

Here's the simple recipe:

What you'll need-

Linguine

Mahi-Mahi

3 Roma tomatoes

Garlic (as much or little as you want)

Salt & Pepper

1 tbls. Capers, smidge of caper juice

Olive oil

2 sprigs fresh Rosemary

Chardonnay

Thinly sliced lemon

Red pepper flake

Foil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Prep about a foot of foil to place the fish on, more or less depending on the size of your fish. Place one piece of the Mahi on each piece of foil. Salt and pepper your fish to taste. I take my tomatoes and cut them into six wedges and place them around the fish (of course you can cut your tomatoes to your liking, but they do cook well in wedges). Roughly chop your garlic and place on fish. Sprinkle on the red pepper flake to taste. Take the Rosemary leaves from the sprig, roughly chop and distribute amongst the fish. Dash of olive oil and a couple dashes of Chardonnay for flavor (this will also become part of your sauce for the pasta). Final step is to place the thinly sliced lemon on top with the capers. I will also squeeze a little amount of my extra lemon for more flavor. Fold up the sides of the foil to make a packet for the fish to steam in, make sure there aren't any areas for the steam to escape. Place fish in the over for about 20 mins, take out of the oven and let sit for a couple more minutes. Serve with cooked pasta and a side salad!

Bon Appetite!
