Instructions

Step 1: Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Brush 4 mahi-mahi fillets (5 oz each) on both sides with 2 tbsp olive oil and season evenly with 1 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp black pepper.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup diced fresh pineapple, 1 medium diced avocado, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 3 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro, 1 small minced jalapeño (seeded), 3 tbsp fresh lime juice, and 1 tsp honey. Stir gently to combine and set aside.
Step 3: Place mahi-mahi on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, until opaque and flaky when tested with a fork.
Step 4: Remove fish from grill and transfer to plates. Spoon generous amounts of pineapple avocado salsa over each fillet and serve immediately.
