Whisk freshly squeezed lime juice and cilantro into garlic-infused olive oil and drizzle it over grilled mahi mahi fillets. This is the perfect complement to grilled fish. The bright citrusy, spicy aroma of the oil and the smoky notes of the fish will captivate everyone. Serve the grilled mahi mahi with steamed white rice and lime wedges for an extra squeeze of juice.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a small skillet over medium heat, heat the oil and garlic and cook, swirling occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a medium heatproof bowl. Add the lime juice, cilantro, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt, whisk to combine, and set aside.

  3. Generously season the mahi mahi with salt and black pepper. Lightly brush the grill grate with olive oil. Place the fish on the grill, convex side down, and cook until it releases easily from the grate, about 5 minutes. Carefully flip the fish and continue cooking until it is firm to the touch, another 5 minutes.
  4. Divide the fish among 4 plates and drizzle with the garlic-lime oil. Serve with lime wedges, cooked white rice, and the remaining sauce. Garnish with cilantro leaves.
