Ingredients
For the Mahi-Mahi:

• 2 fresh Mahi-Mahi fillets (or any firm white fish like snapper or halibut)

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• Juice of 1 lime

• 1 teaspoon ground cumin

• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

• ½ teaspoon sea salt

• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

For the Mango-Avocado Salsa:

• 1 ripe mango, diced

• 1 small jalapeño, finely chopped (optional for spice)

• Juice of 1 lime

• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped

• ½ teaspoon sea salt

• 1 teaspoon honey or agave nectar

Instructions

1. Marinate the Fish: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub over the Mahi-Mahi fillets and let sit for 10-15 minutes.

2. Prepare the Salsa: While the fish marinates, combine mango, avocado, red onion, jalapeño, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and honey in a bowl. Gently toss to mix and set aside.

3. Grill the Fish: Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Cook Mahi-Mahi for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork.

4. Serve & Enjoy: Place grilled fish on a plate and top generously with the fresh mango-avocado salsa.

Optional: Serve with a side of coconut rice or grilled plantains for an extra tropical touch!
