Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ cup lemon juice
⅓ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
3 tablespoons chopped fresh spearmint
1 teaspoon lemon zest
⅓ teaspoon garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon salt
4 (5 ounce) mahi mahi fillets

Steps:

  • Rinse mahi mahi fillets and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Prepare a marinade by stirring lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, spearmint, lemon zest, garlic, and salt together in a baking dish just big enough to accommodate the fillets without overlapping. Lay the mahi mahi fillets into the marinade.
  • Marinate fish in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, turn, and continue marinating another 30 minutes.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove fillets from marinade and shake to remove excess. Discard remaining marinade.
  • Cook fillets on hot grill, but not directly over flame, to seal in moisture, about 15 seconds per side. Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking fish away from flame until the flesh flakes easily with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes.

Categories     Mahi Mahi

Time 18m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 lbs mahi mahi fillets, fresh or thawed, about 3/4 to 1 inch thick
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
3 tablespoons of fresh mint, chopped
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic
1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel (zest)
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Cut fish into 4 serving size pieces (this is easier if fish is slightly frozen). Place fish in a resealable plastic bag. Stir together lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, mint, garlic, lemon zest, and salt. Pour over fish. Seal bag. Turn to coat fish with marinade. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Drain fish, reserving marinade. Grill fish over medium heat for 8 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork (145 degrees F), turning once and brushing with marinade halfway through grilling. Discard any remaining marinade.

Tips:

  • Use fresh and high-quality mahi-mahi fillets. This will ensure that your fish is flaky and flavorful.
  • Season the fish generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the fish.
  • Don't overcook the fish. Mahi-mahi is a delicate fish that can easily become dry if it is overcooked. Cook it just until it is opaque in the center.
  • Serve the fish immediately. Mahi-mahi is best enjoyed when it is fresh out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Greek-style mahi-mahi is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is seasoned with a flavorful blend of herbs and spices, then grilled or baked until flaky. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or potatoes.
