Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Mahi Mahi fillets
- 0.5 cup Teriyaki sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large (peeled, pitted, and diced) Mango
- 0.5 cup (diced) Red bell pepper
- 0.25 cup (finely chopped) Red onion
- 0.25 cup (fresh, chopped) Cilantro
- 0.5 piece (seeded and minced) Jalapeño
- 1 large (juiced) Lime
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 bag (optional, for serving) Tortilla chips
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the Mahi Mahi fillets with olive oil on both sides, then season with salt and black pepper.
Place the fillets in a shallow dish and pour the teriyaki sauce over them, ensuring they're evenly coated. Allow them to marinate for 10–15 minutes while you prepare the salsa.
To make the mango salsa, combine diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, chopped cilantro, minced jalapeño, lime juice, and honey in a medium-sized bowl. Mix well and set aside.
Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Place the Mahi Mahi fillets on the grill and cook for 4–5 minutes per side, brushing with additional teriyaki sauce as they cook. The fish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork when done.
Transfer the cooked Mahi Mahi fillets to a serving plate and let them rest for 2–3 minutes.
Spoon the mango salsa generously over the grilled Mahi Mahi and serve immediately.
Optional: Serve with tortilla chips on the side for a crunchy contrast.
