Best Tomato Lime Mahi Mahi Recipes

MAHI-MAHI WITH GARLIC-LIME OIL

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Heat the oil and garlic in a small skillet over medium heat and cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the garlic is soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour into a medium heatproof bowl. Add the lime juice, cilantro and 1/2 teaspoon salt, whisk to combine and set aside.
• Sprinkle the mahi-mahi generously with salt and pepper. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the fish on the grill, rounded-side down, and cook until it releases from the grill and has grill marks, about 5 minutes. Carefully flip the fish and continue to cook until firm to the touch, about 5 minutes more.
• Divide the fish among 4 plates and spoon some of the garlic-lime oil over top. Serve with lime wedges and cooked white rice and the remaining sauce on the side. Sprinkle with cilantro leaves.

LIME-MARINATED MAHI MAHI

Steps:

• Place the mahi mahi fillets in the marinade and turn to coat; allow to marinate at least 15 minutes.
• Cook on the preheated grill until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Garnish with the twists of lime zest to serve.
