How to Make Mango Ginger Glazed Mahi Mahi

  1. In a shallow glass dish, whisk together 2 tablespoons honey, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/2 cup mashed ripe mango, and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  2. Season mahi-mahi fillets (about 1 pound) with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Place the mahi-mahi fillets in the marinade, ensuring they are coated evenly. If fillets have skin, place them skin-side down.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 30 minutes, to allow the fish to marinate.
  5. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  6. Remove fish from the marinade, reserving the marinade.
  7. Sear the mahi-mahi fillets for 4-6 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Thicker cuts may require up to 8 minutes.
  8. Transfer the cooked mahi-mahi to a serving platter and keep warm.
  9. Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reduces and thickens into a glaze (about 2-3 minutes).
  10. Drizzle the mango ginger glaze over the mahi-mahi fillets.
  11. Garnish with fresh mango slices and serve immediately. Enjoy!
