Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup fresh orange juice, 2 tbsp fresh lime juice, 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, 1 tbsp fresh oregano leaves, 3 cloves minced garlic, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to create a marinade.
  2. Step 2: Place 4 Mahi Mahi fillets (6 oz each) in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, turning to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Remove the fillets from the marinade and grill for 4-5 minutes per side until opaque and flaky, with nice grill marks.
  4. Step 4: Remove the fish from the grill and let rest for 2 minutes before serving with a wedge of lime.
