Soy Grilled Mahi-Mahi

My husband bought a grill a few weeks ago and since then we have been trying to use it as much as we can. Last week we decide to make some mahi-mahi for the first time and I have to say, it turned out pretty darn well! I had never had mahi-mahi before, so I wasn't really sure what to expect, but it turned out delicious! Mahi-mahi has a fairly mild fish flavor so it takes on the flavors that you season it with really well. We decided to go in an Asian direction and were both very pleased with the results!  

To make 2 servings of this delicious soy grilled mahi-mahi you will need: 

• 2, 6oz. MAHI MAHI FILETS (I think salmon would also be good!)
• 1/4 cup SOY SAUCE
• 1 & 1/2 Tbs RICE VINEGAR
• 1 Tbs SESAME OIL
• 2 Tbs GRANULATED SUGAR or BROWN SUGAR
• 1 tsp GARLIC POWDER
• 1/8 tsp CAYENNE PEPPER
• 1 GREEN ONION, sliced

Mix the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and half of the green onion in a medium sized bowl.

Next, add the mahi-mahi into the mixture and allow the fish to marinate at room temperature for about 15 minutes. 

While the fish is marinating get your grill ready. Heat the grill to medium-high heat. (You should only be able to hold your hand close to the grill for about 2-3 seconds.) If you don't have a grill, you could cook it on the stove just as easily. 

Once the grill is ready and the fish has been marinating for at least 15 minutes,  put the fillets on the grill top side down. Let the fillet cook for 2-3 minutes and then rotate it 45 degrees. Cook the fillet for 2-3 minutes in this position (if you have a seasoned grill this will give you criss-cross marks). Next, turn the fillets over and cook another 3-4 minutes. Overall, the fish should be on the grill for about 8-10 minutes. 

While the fish is on the grill, heat the marinade in a small pot on the stove. Simmer the marinade for a few minutes on the stove and then serve it as a dipping sauce alongside the fillets. Top with the rest of the sliced green onions.
