By jarren

Ingredients

• Salsa:
• 1 lb fresh mahi mahi fillets
• 2 tbsp paprika
• 1 tbsp each of onion powder, garlic powder, dried thyme
• 1 tsp each dried basil and dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• Pam spray
• 1 medium mango, peeled, chopped
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded, chopped
• 1/4 cup chopped red onion
• 2 tbsp fresh cilantro
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 lime, juiced

Preparation

Step 1

Mix the blackened seasoning ingredients in a small bowl - set aside.

Turn the grill on to a medium heat (about 400 degrees).

Wash the fish and then pat dry. Coat with a little of olive oil and then apply the blackened seasoning liberally all over the fish, top and bottom. Press to make sure that it sticks.

Put the fish on the grill across the grates so you will get some nice grill marks. When the fish starts to release some of its juices and turns kind of white in the middle, flip it over. It will probably take a little bit less time on the second side. When it feels firm and looks white and no longer translucent, it is done. Total cooking time is about 10 minutes.

Serve immediately with salsa or just sprinkle with some lemon juice.
