GRILLED MAHI MAHI WITH HERBS AND LEMON

SERVES 2 to 3

Mahi Mahi (also spelled Mahi-Mahi) is a slightly fatty, flavorful fish that is best prepared simply, such as broiling or grilling. If you have heard that it is in the dolphin family of fish, never fear, it is not a mammal, like the relatives of Flipper. In this recipe, I use a grill pan, but you could use the outdoor grill. Just remember to oil the grates well so the fish doesn’t stick.

INGREDIENTS

Cooking spray, preferably olive oil

1 pound Mahi Mahi fillets, about 3/4 inch thick

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill

1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika

2 teaspoons minced garlic

Olive oil

Juice from 1/2 small lemon

Spray a nonstick grill pan with cooking spray. Heat to medium-high. Pat fish fillets with paper towels to dry. Season with salt, pepper, parsley, dill, paprika and garlic. Drizzle with a little olive oil. Rub seasonings and oil into both sides. Grill until done, about 4 minutes per side. Drizzle with lemon juice. Serve immediately.
