Mahi Mahi Recipes (suggestions please)

[cassanova]

I've never cooked this fish, nor do I think I've ever tried it. I saw a nice looking slab of it at the seafood market today and thought I'd give it a try. I'm pretty sure that some here enjoy it and have cooked it, so I'd appreciate any recipes and cooking suggestions for it.

Thank you in advance.

Wrap it in tinfoil, deposit it in the garbage. Best. Recipe. Ever.

Coat it in a light flour and egg, then cover with crushed cornflakes (rolling pin in ziplock) and bake uncovered at about 425 for 15 min or so...

Teriyaki marinade. Sear it only 2 mins on each side. Serve with chopped cilantro and crushed peanuts.

Also works great with tuna.

Dorado is a bit on the oily side for my taste, so I usually fry it.

First thing, remove the bloodline, that strip of red down the center of the fillet. Cut the remaining 2 tenderloins into bite sized pieces. Dump some Zatarain,s fish fry coating in a ziplock bag, rinse the fish chunks in cold water and dump them in with the fry mix. Shake it up to coat well, then into a pot of hot oil. I prefer peanut oil because I can get it hotter without smoking, and the hotter the oil the better your fish will cook up. Anywho, drop them in the oil and when they float take 'em up and on to a rack to drain. Don't use paper as it just sits in a puddle of grease and gets soggy. The zatarain's comes in several different flavors so use whichever best suits your taste. I always use the plain as the flavored offerings can overpower the fish, at least for me. YMMV.

If you don't like fried fish, prep the fillet as above, but after rinsing, pat dry and drop into a bowl of Kraft zesty Italian dressing for about 15 minutes then on to a good hot grill just long enough to sear then flip, sear, and take it up. It's easier if you have one of those mesh fish cooker things, but if you don't try to turn it before it gets a good sear, it can be done straight on your grill grate, just apply a liberal shot of cooking spray before you put your fish down.

Lemon, capers, garlic, butter, salt and pepper. Throw it all in some foil and go for it. It's a crappy fish. Simple is good.

in a perforated foil pouch with sliced grapes a dash or two of creole seasoning and cilantro... on a charcoal grill... with waterlogged mesquite chips... let it spend 10 minutes in the pouch, refresh the wood chips, then unwrap it from the foil for the last 3 minutes or so...

serve with brown or wild rice...

If it was me, I'd get some wasabi, soy sauce, candied ginger and slice that ***** up!

put a bit of herbs (anything will do whether its oregano, basil) mixed in with some flour. Mahi Mahi is one of the best eating fish in the sea if taken care of correctly. We caught one around the 30lb mark this year, was delicious!!!
