Greek-Style Mahi Mahi
I just realized that most of my fish recipes are for Mahi Mahi, but pretty much any white fish can be substituted for most of my recipes that use Mahi Mahi. I personally just use Mahi Mahi because I live in the mountains in the middle of Colorado and don’t have a very large seafood selection. Those of you who live on the coast are very lucky! While I was living in New Zealand last summer, I loved going to the farmer’s market every Sunday and buying fresh fish off the fishing boats.
I have had fun exploring all sorts of ethnic cuisines, even if has been with the same type of fish. My last Mahi Mahi recipe was a Mediterranean Olive Tapenade, now I give you a creamy Greek recipe for the same fish. This recipe is for a tangy mayonnaise, mint and dill sauce that is broiled into the fish with fresh lemon juice. It is very easy to prepare and doesn’t take long at all. It also looks beautiful which is great for serving to guests.

- Broil 8-inches away from the heat until cooked through (about 14-16 minutes). NOTE: If lemon slices begin to brown before the fish is cooked, cover with foil.

We like cooking with mahi mahi, too. It’s such a versatile fish. This creamy marinade sounds fantastic! I’d love if you’d consider sharing this in the online Get Grillin’ & summer bbq event I’m hosting (it’s entree week).
This looks so good!I love the addition of lemon slices to bring more flavor and juice into the fish.

Made this for dinner tonight with shark instead of mahi, served with sweet potato oven fries and a chopped salad. It was absolutely delicious. Can’t wait to try this on mahi!
