Ingredients
For the Mahi Mahi:
4 Mahi Mahi fillets
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
For the Mango Salsa:
1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1/4 red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Juice of 1 lime
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
1. Prepare the Mango Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, and cilantro. Squeeze lime juice over the mixture, season with salt and pepper, and stir well. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
2. Season the Mahi Mahi: Brush the Mahi Mahi fillets with olive oil. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
4. Grill the Mahi Mahi: Place the fillets on the preheated grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
5. Serve: Transfer the grilled Mahi Mahi to a serving platter and top with the prepared mango salsa. Serve immediately.

Success Tips: For an extra burst of flavor, marinate the Mahi Mahi in lime juice and olive oil for 30 minutes before grilling.
