I created this recipe last night for dinner.  Before I started eating paleo, I would have served this Caribbean inspired fish with coconut rice so last night I decided to try to substitute with cauliflower rice.  It turned out really well.  Everyone, including my kids, devoured it.  I served this dish with roasted asparagus and mixed green salad similar this.

Grilled Mahi with mango mint salsa

2 mahi fillets (I usually buy the frozen wild caught mahi fillets from Whole Foods )

2 tsp course salt

2 tsp freshly ground peppper

2 tsp allspice

1 mango, peeled and diced

1/2 jalapeno, seeded and minced

1 T fresh mint, chopped

1 tsp red onion, diced

2 limes, juice of

 

1. Combine salt, pepper and allspice in a separate dish and then rub on fish

2. Grill fish on medium setting for approximately 10 minutes or until done. (placing fish on tin foil will help it not stick to your grill)

3. While fish cooks, combine remaining ingredients in separate bowl

4. Top cooked fish with salsa

 

Coconut Cauliflower “rice”

1 head of cauliflower

1 tsp coconut oil

1/2 sweet onion, diced

3/4 can full fat coconut milk (be sure to read labels- I buy mine from Whole Foods)

 

1. Chop cauliflower into small pieces and place in food processor and pulse until the consistency of rice.  This works best to do in 2-3 smaller batches.

2. Heat coconut oil over medium heat and add onions. Cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally

3. Add cauliflower and coconut milk, cover with lid and simmer for 10 min
