Mahi Mahi with Shrimp Stuffing

Since it’s just Nick and I at home, I had extra Mahi Mahi from last night, and decided to try something a little different.  The Mahi Mahi topped with shrimp stuffing  recipe came out really tasty and Nick said that the shrimp stuffing reminded him of lobster bisque (from the sherry that is put into the stuffing mixture).

Anyway, here it is and I encourage you to try this fish, it is so good.

Happy fishing!
