Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your smoker or grill to 275°F with 1 cup soaked wood chips for smoke. Brush 4 mahi-mahi fillets with 2 tbsp olive oil and season evenly with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
Step 2: Place the fillets on the smoker or grill grate and smoke for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches 145°F internal temperature.
Step 3: While the fish smokes, combine 1 cup diced ripe mango, 1/2 cup finely diced red bell pepper, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1 minced jalapeño, 2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro, and 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice in a bowl. Mix well and let sit for 10 minutes to meld flavors.
Step 4: Serve the smoked mahi-mahi topped generously with the fresh mango salsa for a vibrant, smoky, and sweet combination.
