Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
6 (3 ounce) fillets mahi mahi fillets
⅓ cup sour cream
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 large mango - peeled, seeded and diced
1 cup diced fresh pineapple
1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced
1 jalapeno pepper, minced
6 (6 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the mahi-mahi with salt and pepper. Cook the fillets in the hot oil until the fish is golden brown on each side, and no longer translucent in the center, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the sour cream, lime juice, ginger, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper to taste; set aside. Gently combine the mango, pineapple, avocado, and jalapeno in a bowl.
  • To assemble, place a cooked mahi-mahi fillet into the center of a warmed tortilla. Place a scoop of the mango salsa onto the fish, then drizzle with the sour cream sauce, and finish with a generous pinch of chopped cilantro.

Number Of Ingredients 10

MARINADE
4 teaspoons grated lime peel
1/2 cup lime juice
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/3 cup finely chopped green onions
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup grated gingerroot
3 garlic cloves, minced
FISH
2 lb. mahi mahi fillets, cut into 8 pieces

Steps:

Place mahi mahi fillets in resealable plastic food storage bag or shallow glass baking dish; pour marinade over fish. Seal bag or cover dish. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes to marinate, turning once. Remove fish from marinade; if desired, reserve marinade for basting fish. Place fish on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Brush half of reserved marinade over fish. Cook 4 to 6 minutes. Turn fish; brush with remaining marinade. Cook an additional 4 to 6 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork. If desired, garnish with lime slices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcook the mahi-mahi. It is a delicate fish and can easily become dry and tough.
  • Serve the mahi-mahi immediately. This will help to keep it moist and flavorful.
  • Experiment with different sides and sauces. There are many different ways to enjoy mahi-mahi, so don't be afraid to try new things.
