Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 mango, diced
  • 1 peach, diced
  • ½ pineapple, diced
  • ½ red onion, minced
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
  • ¼ tsp ground cayenne pepper
  • 4 (6-ounce) pieces mahi mahi
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Method
 

  1. Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
  2. 1 or 2 limes, quartered TO MAKE THE MANGO-PEACH SALSA In a large bowl, mix the avocado, mango, peach, pineapple, red onion, lime juice, cilantro, and cayenne.
  3. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to serve. TO MAKE THE FISH
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high.
  5. Coat the fish with the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until the fish is opaque all the way through.
  7. Serve the fish hot with a couple of tablespoons of the salsa on top or on the side.
  8. Garnish with extra cilantro and a wedge of lime. VARIATION 1 BLACKENED MAHI MAHI: Season the mahi mahi with Blackening Spice Mix (here), and cook in a dry pan for 3 to 4 minutes per side. VARIATION 2 SEA BASS WITH MANGO SALSA: Substitute mahi mahi for sea bass if you’re interested in a flakier, more buttery white fish.
  9. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side, until opaque all the way through. PREP TIP: Buying mahi mahi frozen at the store is so convenient—it keeps really well in the freezer and can be defrosted overnight to be ready to cook for dinner the next day. If you forget to take it out of the freezer in time, you can actually defrost it even more quickly in the sink!
