How to Make Mahi Mahi Polynesian Style

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves.
  3. Place 2 (6-ounce) mahi mahi fillets in a resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over fish, ensuring it's evenly coated. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  4. Lightly spray a non-stick baking pan with cooking spray.
  5. Place marinated mahi mahi fillets in the prepared pan.
  6. Drain 1 cup of pineapple chunks, reserving the juice.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together the reserved pineapple juice (about 1/4 cup) and 1 teaspoon curry powder.
  8. Pour the pineapple juice mixture evenly over the fish.
  9. Arrange the drained pineapple chunks and 1/4 cup of sliced jalapeños on top of the fish.
  10. Loosely cover the baking pan with foil.
  11. Bake for 15 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
  12. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
