Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Mahi Mahi fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large (diced) Avocados
- 1 cup (halved) Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup (finely diced) Red onion
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 small (seeded and finely diced) Jalapeño (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the Mahi Mahi fillets on both sides with the olive oil mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Place the fillets on the preheated grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove and set aside.
To prepare the avocado salsa, combine diced avocados, cherry tomatoes, red onion, fresh cilantro, lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and diced jalapeño (if using) in a medium bowl. Gently mix until evenly combined.
Divide the cooked mahi mahi fillets evenly among four plates and top each fillet with a generous portion of avocado salsa.
Garnish with additional cilantro or lime wedges if desired, and serve immediately.
