Wonderful and easy. You can adjust all ingredients to taste. I usually serve with a salad and use reserve marinade as a dressing. When grilling, I flip often and continue brushing to obtain a strong flavor. Is also excellent as a stand-alone dressing.

I used this as the fish in a fish taco and used the white sauce in the fish taco recipe poured over the shredded cabbage over the fish inside a four tortilla- outstanding! Read More

We made this following the recipe and cooked it on an indoor grill. It smelled fantastic and made the whole house smell delicious but we found the actual meal somewhat disappointing and a bit bland. Read More

Delicious!. I used more garlic and i actually marinaded the fish for a couple of minutes and also basted on grill. This was a big hit - the key is to NOT overcook the mahimahi. I will definitely make this again. Read More
