Steps:
- Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
- Heat the oil and garlic in a small skillet over medium heat and cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the garlic is soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour into a medium heatproof bowl. Add the lime juice, cilantro and 1/2 teaspoon salt, whisk to combine and set aside.
- Sprinkle the mahi-mahi generously with salt and pepper. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place the fish on the grill, rounded-side down, and cook until it releases from the grill and has grill marks, about 5 minutes. Carefully flip the fish and continue to cook until firm to the touch, about 5 minutes more.
- Divide the fish among 4 plates and spoon some of the garlic-lime oil over top. Serve with lime wedges and cooked white rice and the remaining sauce on the side. Sprinkle with cilantro leaves.
MAHI MAHI, FAJITA STYLE
I used mahi mahi for this, but you could just as easily substitute any mild white fish, or chicken. A very interesting combination of colors, textures and flavors with a smoky, Mexican undertone.

Steps:
- 1. Heat oven to 350. Place fish on a lightly greased pan. Sprinkle with taco seasoning and bake 10-20 minutes, until it flakes easily with a fork.
- 2. While fish cooks, heat oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium high. When it's hot and begins to shimmer add onions and bell pepper. Cook, stirring frequently but allowing scotched patches to form, until crisp-tender. You're aiming for something like fajitas.
- 3. Combine heated rice and black beans. Divide the mixture between two serving plates, spreading it into a circle.
- 4. Top rice and beans with bell pepper mixture.
- 5. When fish is done, place it on top of the bell peppers.
- 6. Top the fish with a line of pineapple salsa, a scoop of yogurt or sour cream, avocado and a drizzle of hot sauce.

THE BEST MAHI-MAHI
With a firm flesh and mild taste, mahi-mahi (aka dorado) is ideal for intense cooking and lots of bold flavor. Here we brush mahi-mahi fillets with a spicy-sweet glaze made with pineapple juice, soy sauce, ginger and red pepper flakes. The fillets hold up well and are easy to flip on a hot grill, which ensures that the glaze becomes sticky and slightly charred, while locking in moisture so the fish is tender and succulent. A quick salsa of grilled pineapple, charred scallions and fresh mint and cilantro is spooned on top as a nod to the mahi-mahi's native tropical waters. You can practically feel the warm breeze off the ocean in every bite!

Steps:
- For the salsa: Prepare a grill or grill pan for medium heat. When hot, brush generously with vegetable oil.
- Grill the pineapple rings and scallions (working in batches if using a grill pan), flipping the scallions often, until tender and charred, 3 to 5 minutes total and flipping the pineapple once, until nicely charred, about 5 minutes on each side. Let cool on a cutting board then dice. Toss to combine with the lime juice and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside. (The cilantro and mint will be added just before serving.)
- For the mahi-mahi: Combine the soy sauce, red pepper flakes, garlic, scallion, ginger, lime juice and reserved pineapple juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, syrupy and thick, about 6 minutes.
- Pat the mahi-mahi dry with paper towels and generously brush the tops of the fish with the glaze; season with a good pinch each of salt and pepper. Grill glaze-side down, undisturbed, until nicely charred, about 5 minutes. Brush the tops of the fish with glaze and season with another pinch each of salt and pepper. Flip and grill, undisturbed, until the fish is cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Brush the tops with more glaze.
- Divide the fish among plates. Fold the cilantro and mint into the pineapple salsa, then spoon it over the fish. Serve immediately.
MEDITERRANEAN MAHI MAHI
I created this entree years ago when a friend gave me some fresh-caught mahi mahi. Shortly after, I entered the recipe in a contest and won! I think you'll agree it's a keeper. -Virginia Anthony, Jacksonville, Florida
