Recipe View 10 mins Prepare the Bacon: In a large, deep skillet, cook the diced bacon over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crispy and golden brown. (Approx. 8-10 minutes). Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat. Once cooled slightly, roughly chop the bacon. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon fat in the skillet; discard the rest.

Recipe View 12 mins Cook the Mahi Mahi: Heat the skillet with the reserved bacon fat over medium heat. Carefully place the seasoned mahi mahi fillets in the hot skillet and cook until they are opaque and flake easily with a fork. (Approx. 5-7 minutes per side, depending on thickness).

Cook, stirring frequently, until the spinach is heated through and the garlic is fragrant. (Approx. 3-5 minutes). Stir in the chopped crispy bacon, evaporated milk, and hot pepper sauce. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Gradually add the shredded Monterey Jack cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash more evaporated milk to reach your desired consistency.

Recipe View 4 mins Broil to Perfection: Place the baking dish under the preheated broiler and broil until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned. (Approx. 3-5 minutes). Watch carefully to prevent burning.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the spinach mixture.
If you don't have evaporated milk, you can substitute half-and-half or heavy cream, but adjust the amount to achieve the desired consistency.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese. Gruyere or Swiss cheese would also be delicious in this dish.
To add some heat, include a pinch of red pepper flakes in the spinach mixture.
