📝 Instructions

9 steps
1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or heat a grill pan over medium-high heat on the stove.

2

Pat the mahi mahi fillets dry with paper towels. Brush both sides of the fillets with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then sprinkle evenly with salt and black pepper.

3

In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the minced garlic and sesame oil. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

4

Stir in the soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, and lime juice. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.

5

Place the mahi mahi fillets on the preheated grill. Cook for 3-5 minutes on one side until grill marks appear, then flip and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

6

Remove the fish from the grill and transfer it to a serving plate.

7

Drizzle the garlic sesame sauce over the grilled mahi mahi fillets.

8

Garnish each filet with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
