Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Mahi Mahi fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 whole Lemon wedges
Instructions
Rinse the Mahi Mahi fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika to create the marinade.
Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the fish, making sure the fillets are evenly coated.
Refrigerate and let the fish marinate for 30 minutes to 2 hours for best flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).
Remove the Mahi Mahi from the marinade and allow excess marinade to drip off.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the fillets on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the Mahi Mahi from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Sprinkle each fillet with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
