  • Yield

    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped English hothouse cucumber (about 1/2 large)
3/4 cup coarsely chopped green onions
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
5 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 1/2 tablespoons (or more) white balsamic vinegar
2 1/2 teaspoons chopped seeded serrano chiles
4 7-to 8-ounce mahi-mahi fillets
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
6 ounces small red and yellow cherry, pear, or grape tomatoes, halved

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine cucumber, onions, cilantro, 4 1/2 tablespoons oil, 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar, and chiles in processor. Using on/off turns, blend mixture until finely chopped. Transfer to bowl. Season with more vinegar, if desired, and salt and black pepper.

    Step 2

    Sprinkle fish fillets on both sides with salt, pepper, and cumin. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish and cook 5 minutes. Turn over, cover, and cook until fish is just opaque in center, 4 to 5 minutes.

    Step 3

    Divide gazpacho sauce among 4 plates. Top each with 1 fish fillet. Scatter tomatoes atop and around fish and serve.
