(Cue the thumping beat, sick bass line…) “Here she comes now, sayin' mahi-mahi.” It's the remixed version, very rare, only collectors have it. Just like this meal… a rare and special thing, with peppercorn sauce that's creamy and cheesy and feisty, just like 80s punk-pop stars. And if you find a girl who sings mahi-mahi, you better keep her, just like you better keep this recipe close. Tip: To peel the carrot with less effort, lay it down on your cutting board peel one half, rolling it as you peel. (Be sure to peel in a motion away from you!)
