Description

This Grilled Mahi Mahi recipe features tender, flaky fish fillets marinated in a zesty blend of lemon, garlic, and herbs. It’s a light, flavorful, and healthy main dish perfect for warm-weather grilling.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 mahi mahi fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Lemon wedges and fresh herbs for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Place mahi mahi fillets in a shallow dish or zip-top bag and pour the marinade over them. Marinate in the refrigerator for 20–30 minutes.
  3. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates.
  4. Remove fish from marinade and grill for 4–5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Serve hot with lemon wedges and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • Do not over-marinate the fish to avoid breaking down the texture.
  • Pairs well with grilled vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
  • You can also cook this on a stovetop grill pan or bake it at 400°F for 12–15 minutes.
