Grilled Mahi Mahi Tacos With Red Cabbage Slaw, Tomato And Avocado Salsa And Pineapple Hot Sauce is the whole name for this lovely recipe. Created by Bobby Flay for a wedding on FoodNetwork, and it was a big hit with all the guests at the wedding. I wanted to share this lovely recipe with you all. It took me about 3 hrs. to make this dish, but it is well worth it! Be careful when making the Charred Pineapple-Habanero Hot Sauce using the the habanero chiles, as it is HOT with 2! I would suggest only 1 if you don't like real hot and spicy.

I wasn't a big fan of the slaw, but the fish and salsa were amazing. I would definitely make this recipe again, but I would leave out the slaw.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less chili powder if you don't like spicy food.
