Steps:
- Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.

Tips:
- Choose fresh mahi-mahi steaks. Look for steaks that are firm to the touch and have a mild, slightly sweet smell. Avoid steaks that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.

- Serve the mahi-mahi steaks with a variety of sides. Some popular options include rice, beans, vegetables, and salsa.
