Part 5/7:
You’re almost there! For the crema sauce, blend together 4 oz of sour cream, a bit of jalapeno for spice (if desired), a chipotle in adobo sauce, garlic, and season with salt and pepper. Add a splash of milk to achieve your preferred consistency. Blend until smooth and set aside to develop those bold flavors further.
Cooking the Mahi Mahi
With your accompaniments ready, it's time to cook the mahi mahi. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle with olive oil. Add the marinated fillets, cooking them for approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Flip them over, allowing the other side to develop a lovely blackened color while remaining flaky inside. The aroma filling your kitchen will be absolutely tantalizing and worth every moment of patience.
