Ingredients
- 1 pound mahi mahi, fresh or frozen
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- Fresh ground pepper to taste
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Capers (optional)
Instructions
Cut the mahi mahi into 4 serving-size portions. Brush both sides of the fish with the olive oil and lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then rub the garlic on the fish.
To grill, arrange the fish on a grill rack or use a grill basket that has been sprayed with an olive oil cooking spray. Grill over medium-hot coals for 4–6 minutes per 1⁄2″ of thickness, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. If the fish is more than 1″ thick, gently turn it halfway through grilling.
To broil, arrange the fish on the rack of a broiler pan that has been sprayed with an olive oil cooking spray. Broil 4″ from the heat for 4–6 minutes per 1⁄2″ of thickness, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
If the fish is more than 1” thick, gently turn it halfway through broiling. To serve, top the fish with capers, if using.
