A hearty, white-fleshed fish, mahi mahi stands up well to the bold flavors of pineapple and red bell pepper.
Serve it over a bed of whole-wheat couscous, which offers more B vitamin and fiber!

Ingredients
2 1/3 cups low-sodium chicken broth, divided
1 cup whole-wheat couscous
2 tsp olive oil
-
4 Mahi Mahi Fillets
1/4 tsp each sea salt and fresh ground black pepper
2 cups chopped fresh pineapple
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 tbsp chopped fresh chives
Directions
In a small saucepan, bring 1 1/3 cups broth to a boil on high heat. Stir in couscous. Remove from heat immediately, cover and let sit for 5 minutes, until liquid is absorbed.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat oil on medium-high. Season both sides of mahi mahi with salt and black pepper. Add mahi mahi to skillet and cook for 1 minute per side, until golden. Remove from pan and set aside.
Add pineapple and bell pepper to skillet and cook on medium-high for 2 minutes, until soft, stirring occasionally. Stir in cooked couscous, remaining 1 cup broth, and chives and mix well. Arrange mahi mahi on top of couscous mixture, cover with foil and cook for 2 minutes, until mahi mahi is tender and steaming under foil.
