Ingredients

• 4 pieces Mahi Mahi fillets
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 large Lemon
• 4 tablespoons Vegan butter
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill
• 1 tablespoon Fresh basil
• 1 large Garlic clove

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).

Step 2

Rinse the Mahi Mahi fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 4

Brush both sides of the Mahi Mahi fillets with the olive oil mixture.

Step 5

In another bowl, zest the lemon and then cut the lemon into wedges; set aside the wedges for serving.

Step 6

In a small heatproof bowl, melt the vegan butter over low heat or microwave for about 15-20 seconds until just melted.

Step 7

Finely chop the fresh parsley, fresh dill, and fresh basil, and mince the garlic clove.

Step 8

Mix the lemon zest, chopped herbs, and minced garlic into the melted butter to create the lemon herb butter.

Step 9

Using vegetable oil, lightly grease the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 10

Place the Mahi Mahi fillets on the grill and cook for approximately 5-6 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 11

During the last minute of grilling, brush each fillet with the lemon herb butter.

Step 12

Remove the fish from the grill and drizzle remaining lemon herb butter over the top.

Step 13

Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges on the side for a burst of citrus flavor.
