Mahi Lemon Garlic Pasta

I love pasta. I love fish, so I really love this mahi lemon garlic pasta.

And the best part, my boys love it too. If my boys love a dinner I’ve made, then I tend to make it on repeat, weekly!

This is one of those weekly meals. I love how easy it is to make, plus healthy.

Don’t have mahi? I’ve also made with cod and halibut.

To make:

Bring your favorite healthy pasta to a boil; cook, drain and set aside.

I use this pasta, but there are so many great ones to choose! We also love chickpea, rice, bean, and einkorn noodles.

Next, In a medium skillet, bring the avocado oil to medium/high, then add fish.

Cook for about 7 minutes, flipping once and slowly chopping the fish while cooking with a metal spatula until small chunks remain and are no longer pink.

Once cooked, add olive oil and garlic to another medium pan and cook on low/medium until garlic turns a golden brown, about 5-8 minutes.
Add salt, lemon juice, + 1/4 cup pasta water to garlic mixture.

Once cooked, add fish and olive oil mixture over noodles.

Stir and serve topped with lemon zest, parsley and parmesan cheese.

Enjoy! I hope your family loves this pasta as much as we do, let me know in the comments below!
