Seared Mahi-Mahi with Green Gazpacho Sauce

This elegant pan-seared mahi-mahi with green gazpacho sauce is a vibrant celebration of fresh, seasonal flavours. The meaty fish fillets are seasoned with earthy cumin and seared until perfectly crisp, providing a delicious contrast to the chilled, herb-flecked sauce. Using English cucumber, spring onions, and a hint of chilli, the gazpacho base offers a bright acidity that cuts through the richness of the fish, while a scatter of multi-coloured cherry tomatoes adds a final burst of sweetness and colour to the plate.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and rich in lean protein and heart-healthy fats from the olive oil. It is an ideal choice for a light summer dinner or a sophisticated weekend lunch that feels indulgent without being heavy. Serve this simple, nutritious meal on its own or with a side of steamed greens for a complete, balanced plate that is as healthy as it is visually stunning.
