    Things To Grab

    • Large resealable plastic bag
    • Paper towels
    • Charcoal or gas grill
    • Meat thermometer

    Directions

    1. In a resealable plastic bag or medium bowl, combine lime juice, olive oil, honey and salt. Add mahi mahi fillets and turn to coat; refrigerate, turning once, for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Remove fish from marinade; discard marinade. Pat fish dry with paper towels. Season fish with Cajun seasoning.

    2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat for direct cooking.
    3. Lightly oil the grill grates by rubbing grates with an oiled paper towel.
    4. Grill mahi mahi 3 minutes, skin side up. Turn and continue to cook 5 to 7 more minutes, or until fish begins to flake when tested with a fork and is opaque (145 degrees).
