Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Mahi Mahi fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to create the marinade.
Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish or a ziplock bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring each fillet is evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the fillets from the marinade and place them on the grill. Grill the Mahi Mahi for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and easily flakes with a fork.
Transfer the grilled Mahi Mahi to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
Enjoy your low carb grilled Mahi Mahi with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
