Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    Place the mahi mahi fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each fillet is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 450°F).

  2. 4

    Grill the Mahi Mahi

    Remove the mahi mahi from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Place the fillets on the grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and has nice grill marks.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Once grilled, remove the mahi mahi from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with additional lime wedges and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
