Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Mahi Mahi fillets
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
  • 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
  • 4 pieces Lemon wedges, for serving

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, thyme, sea salt, black pepper, and paprika to create a marinade.

Step 2

Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours for more intense flavor.

Step 3

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Remove the Mahi Mahi from the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and place the fillets on the grill.

Step 5

Grill the Mahi Mahi for 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes.

Step 7

Serve the grilled Mahi Mahi with lemon wedges on the side for extra flavor.
