Grilled Mahi Mahi covered in a smoky homemade dry seasoning rub and grilled to firm, flaky perfection, making for a flavorful and easy dinner option ready in just 15 minutes.

Ingredients

For the Grilled Mahi Mahi:

  • 2 (6 oz.) Mahi Mahi fillets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Mahi Mahi: Place the Mahi Mahi fillets on a sheet tray and brush all sides with olive oil.
  2. Season the Fish: In a small bowl, mix salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper. Season the fish on all sides with the seasoning mixture.
  3. Grill the Mahi Mahi: Heat the grill over medium-high heat, oil the grates, and place the Mahi Mahi flesh side down. Grill for 3-5 minutes per side until desired doneness is reached.
  4. Finish and Serve: Brush the fish with melted butter, garnish with parsley, and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Grill the Mahi Mahi with the skin on to prevent it from falling apart.
  • Use all the seasoning for maximum flavor.
  • Grill a lemon alongside for added flavor.
  • Mahi Mahi can be enjoyed medium-rare, but it’s recommended to cook until 160°F for a firmer texture.
