• 0.25 cup Orange juice
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 2 teaspoons Fresh ginger
• 1 teaspoon Ground allspice
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Ripe mango
• 0.5 cup Red bell pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a bowl, combine orange juice, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, ground allspice, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish, pour the marinade over them, and let them marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the fish marinates, prepare the mango salsa: dice the mango, red bell pepper, red onion, and cilantro. Finely dice the jalapeño, removing the seeds for less heat if desired.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the mango, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño. Stir in honey and lime juice. Set the salsa aside.

Step 5

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 6

Remove the Mahi Mahi fillets from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 7

Sear the fillets in the skillet for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 8

Serve the seared Mahi Mahi fillets warm, topped with the prepared mango salsa.

Step 9

Pair the dish with rice, plantains, or a side salad for a complete Caribbean-inspired meal.

Step 10

Enjoy your homemade Caribbean Mahi Mahi 10 Points!
