Low Carb Steamed Ginger Mahi Mahi with Roasted Bok Choy

I love all the delicious flavors from the tamari, ginger and garlic that perfume the fish during the baking process. The fish is gently placed on top of sliced ginger and garlic and is steamed using the oven in foil packets. Bok choy is sliced in half and placed cut side down onto a hot sheet tray to create a beautiful roasted color. Then the dish is tied together with a tangy and salty scallion oil. To easily make this dish paleo, replace the tamari with coconut aminos. The recipe says 9 oz of Mahi Mahi but this is the cooked weight for nutritional purposes. Start with three 4 oz raw fillets.

Place foil packets onto a sheet tray and bake for 20 minutes (more or less depending on the thickness of the fish). Also place into the oven an empty sheet tray and allow it to get very hot. When there are 10 minutes left on the cooking time for the fish. Remove the hot sheet tray from the oven and pour on 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Place bok choy cut side down on the sheet tray and drizzle with ¾ tablespoon of tamari and bake for 10 minutes.
