Grill Roasted Mahi
Recipe for 2 pieces
2 Mahi portions (approximately 8 oz.each)
Marinade: Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing
Granulated Garlic
Black Pepper
Italian Seasoning
Prep:
Lay fish on plate, lightly coat the fish by sprinkling with the seasonings. Remember don’t add salt, because the dressing has ample salt.
Alright now go light your grill and let it pre-heat, if using charcoal you need to go ahead and light. Next add marinade to fish careful not to wash seasonings off. The dressing works great, but do not apply too early, the vinegar trends to start cooking the fish. Now make sure the grill is good and hot; oil for less sticking. Lay fish on hot spots on grill. Cook 4 minutes on 1st side without moving. Now carefully turn over and continue cooking for 4 more minutes. Pull fish off grill and let stand 1 minute. The fish should flake to touch.
Serving suggestions:
This preparation makes great grilled fish burgers with lettuce and tomato. Another idea is to serve over tomato sauce and pasta or with vegetables and mashed potatoes. But be creative.
