Mahi Mahi With Cauliflower

Ingredients
4 6-ounce skinless mahi mahi fillets (about 3/4 inch thick)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 head cauliflower, florets cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup golden raisins
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the fish until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, cooked-side up, and roast in the oven until just cooked through, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower and cook, stirring, until golden brown and crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Add the almonds, raisins, coriander, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; cook until the almonds are golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and parsley.

Divide the fish among plates and serve with the cauliflower and lemon wedges.

Open-Faced Tuna Sandwiches with Arugula and Sweet-Pickle Mayonnaise

Ingredients
Mayonnaise:

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup finely diced sweet pickles (about 2 pickles)

Sandwiches:

4 (4 to 6-ounce) albacore tuna steaks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil, for drizzling, plus 1/4 cup
4 teaspoons herbs de Provence
4 slices sharp white Cheddar
1 (1-pound) loaf ciabatta bread, halved horizontally (see Cook's Note)
2 cups arugula, thinly sliced

Directions

For the mayonnaise: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and sweet pickles until smooth.

For the sandwiches: Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Season the tuna with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with the herbs de Provence. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Place a slice of cheese on each piece of fish during the last minute of grilling. Using a pastry brush, brush the bottom half of the bread with 1/4 cup of olive oil. Cut into 4 pieces, each about 4-inches long and 3-inches wide. Grill, cut side down, for 30 seconds to 1 minute until toasted and golden.

Spread the grilled bread with the sweet pickle mayonnaise. Place a tuna steak on top. Top with the arugula and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.

Cook's Note: Make the leftover top half of the ciabatta into croutons by cutting into 1-inch pieces, drizzling with olive oil and baking for 10 to 12 minutes in a preheated 375 degree F oven. Alternatively, tear the bread into small pieces, allow to dry, and blend in a food processor to make bread crumbs.
