Pour the lemon juice and the white wine into the skillet; season with kosher salt and black pepper. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces enough to coat the back of a spoon, 20 to 30 minutes.

Stir the tomatoes and the artichoke hearts into the reduced sauce; cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes more.
- 4
Remove the skillet from the heat, add the cold butter pieces, and swirl the skillet off the heat until the butter melts and emulsifies into the sauce. Cover and keep warm.

Make fish: Mix the flour and the seasoned salt in a wide, shallow bowl. Dredge the mahi-mahi fillets in the flour mixture to coat.

Heat the olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Fry the mahi-mahi in the hot oil until the fish flakes easily with a fork in the center, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
