The seasonal potluck continues! I’ve found that it is a little early here in the Midwest for rhubarb, but you will certainly see it at the farmers markets and probably other specialty markets soon. So hopefully you all can enjoy some of our great potluck recipes when the weather warms up a bit! I realized that I hadn’t made anything savory yet with rhubarb because I kept finding dessert recipes that sounded so good! Betsy made a couple of really nice sounding savory rhubarb recipes, with chicken and pork, so I thought I’d give fish a go! The original recipe calls for halibut, but I used mahi mahi. I think that any whitefish would work fine with this recipe though. These original recipes are adapted from www.myrecipes.com.
