garlic cilantro mahi mahi

Just to be clear, mahi mahi is called dolphin-fish, but it is *not* dolphin! It is also called Dorado, and is a very sleek, open-water fish. It is a mild white fish that holds its texture well, yet is still pretty juicy and can be almost buttery. 

Environmentally, mahi is a fairly good choice, ideally if it is caught in the Atlantic, and by troll or line-catch. Pacifi mahi is also OK, again by troll or line-catch methods.

Pair with Tropical Fruit Salsa or Won Bok Coleslaw

Mahi mahi fillet, skinless if possible.
Small handful of cilantro, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

Olive oil
Hawaiian salt and pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients except the fish. Drop the mahi into the marinade and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Grill, turning once. You can also use fillet with skins and bake if it's too cold outside. The photo is the baked version.
