  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 15 minute

Ingredients

– 4 Mahi Mahi fillets (about 6 ounces each)
– ¼ cup olive oil
– 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
– 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
– Fresh herbs for garnish (parsley or cilantro)


Instructions

Creating Grilled Mahi Mahi is simple and straightforward. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lime juice, honey, minced garlic, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
2. Marinate the Fish: Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure each fillet is well coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
3. Preheat the Grill: Meanwhile, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
4. Oil the Grill Grates: To prevent sticking, oil the grill grates using tongs and a paper towel soaked in vegetable oil.
5. Grill the Fish: Once the grill is hot, place the marinated Mahi Mahi fillets on the grill. Cook them for about 4-5 minutes on one side.
6. Flip the Fillets: Carefully flip the fillets and grill for another 4-5 minutes or until they are opaque and flake easily with a fork.
7. Check Doneness: An internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) indicates that the fish is fully cooked.
8. Remove from Grill: Using a spatula, gently transfer the grilled fillets to a serving platter.
9. Garnish: Sprinkle freshly chopped herbs over the fillets to add a burst of color and flavor.

With these straightforward steps, you can create a mouthwatering dish that will impress anyone fortunate enough to share it with you!
