"Preparation" - Grilling Mahi Mahi"

Mahi-Mahi can be grilled as whole fish or cut into fillets.
Rinse the fish under a cold tap and pat dry with a paper towel.
Season the fish with fresh spices such as thyme, rosemary and oregano.
Drizzle a small amount of olive oil or salad dressing to give the fish a layer of protection.
Use aluminum foil grilling the whole fish, this will keep it from burning and drying out. After seasoning place in a piece of foil big enough to enclose it.
When preparing Mahi Mahi fillets or steaks you may grill them straight on the grill without any foil.
Just make sure the pieces are well coated with olive oil to prevent them from drying out.
