That's a nice fish, rather thick filet. I had a memorable mahi baked in a paper bag from a seafood joint on Maui. They made a ginger-butter sauce and when the bag was opened table side and my fish plated, the server poured sauce around the fish. Really good. The egg can do better.....


INGREDIENTS:
Butter sauce
1/2 Stick Butter
1 Oz. White Wine
1 Tsp. Ginger, Fresh
Pinch Cayenne
2 Cloves Garlic, minced
1 Tsp. Brown Sugar
Sea Salt to taste




1 With the egg burning clean at 400 dome, grill direct on oiled grid, brushing fish with butter sauce until fish flakes with a fork test and is opaque. (about 8 minutes?)
BUTTER SAUCE
1 Simmer to reduce and take some out for basting fish when grilling, reserving the rest for the dinner plate

I cooked some the other night. Here's what I did...

Put a large cast iron skillet in the egg and heated to 500*. I dipped the fillets in butter then coated with blackening seasoning. Cook for a couple minutes per side until flaky. Serve with some fresh tartar sauce.

Blackening Seasoning:

2 tablespoons sweet paprika
2 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon ground pepper

not a recipe, but if your catching your own try steaking some pieces instead of filleting them. i like steaked mahi way better than filleted.

Here's an easy one that I like. I haven't made it since I got our Egg but it came out great on our Brinkmann Professional Charcoal grill last year. For the egg, I'd guess 450f or so for about 3 minutes per side.

Mahi-Mahi

Here is a recipe from PV Mexico. They were grilling the fish on sticks over wood coals and coating the fish with this mixture as they grilled it. Our waitress was the only English speaking lady and I asked for the recipe.

The mix
Achiote
Butter
Garlic
Bay leaves
Orange jucie

They made this liquid and cooked it down some. And than spread it on the fish as it was being grilled on the coals.
I do not know the amounts but Achiote is a local seasioning and does not take much. The rest is put into a orange or pinapple juice and cooked
