Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Mahi Mahi fillets
- 1 second spray each side Olive oil spray
- 0.25 cup Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 2 cloves minced Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, lime juice, minced garlic, and fresh dill. Mix well to create the marinade.
Step 2
Place the mahi mahi fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Turn the fish to ensure it's completely coated. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but no more than 1 hour.
Step 3
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Clean the grill grates thoroughly to prevent the fish from sticking.
Step 4
Remove the mahi mahi fillets from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels. Discard the leftover marinade.
Step 5
Lightly spray both sides of each fillet with olive oil spray to promote browning and prevent sticking.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix salt, black pepper, and paprika. Sprinkle this seasoning evenly over both sides of the fillets.
Step 7
Place the fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the mahi mahi from the grill and let them rest for 1-2 minutes.
Step 9
Serve the fillets hot, garnished with fresh parsley. Optionally, accompany with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
