1 1/4 LB mahi fillets

1 mango

2 Tbsp buttermilk

2. Remove the rest of the mango flesh from the pit and process until smooth in your blender or food processor and set aside.

3. Melt 1 Tbsp butter in a skillet on the stove and saute fillets on medium heat for about 3 minutes per side.

4. While fish is sauteing, in a separate skillet, melt another Tbsp of butter.

5. Add the mango chunks and processed mango and cook on medium heat for three minutes, stirring a couple of times.

6. Add the lime ingredients and stir in the cream.

7. Turn the heat to medium high and bring to a simmer and serve over the fillets.
