Prepping Mahi Mahi
Before cooking your mahi mahi fillets it is very important to thoroughly thaw your fish. We recommend thawing them in the refrigerator overnight. For faster thawing, remove the desired number of fillets from plastic packaging and place them in a sealable plastic bag. Remove as much air from the bag as possible and submerge under cold water for approximately 30 minutes.
Seasoning Mahi Mahi
Mahi mahi is coveted for its mild, sweet flavor but can easily become overpowered if paired with bold or extra flavor options. Season lightly immediately before cooking with our Signature Seafood Rub, your favorite seasoning, or a homemade marinade.
