Ingredients

  • For the Fish:
  • 2 large mahi mahi steaks - fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • Salt and pepper for fish - amount will vary depending on the size of your steaks
  • 1 tablespoon Butter
  • For the mango salsa:
  • 1/2 cup fresh mango - diced
  • 3 tablespoon tablespoons fresh cilantro or 1dried cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons green onion - 1 green onion diced
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice - about 1/2 lime
  • 1/8 teaspoon Sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon Honey
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  • In a pan, add olive oil and heat to medium high heat.
  • Sprinkle each side of your fish with salt and pepper
  • Add fish to pan and cook about 5 minutes each side If using frozen fish. 3 minutes if you are using fresh. This time will also depend on your fish's thickness so adjust accordingly.
  • While the fish is cooking, in a small bowl, add sriracha, cumin, honey, salt, lime juice and garlic powder and mix together.
  • Pour evenly over fish and continue cooking 1-2 minutes on each side so the fish gets nice and caramelized.
  • Add butter to the pan, let it melt and spoon over fish.
  • Fish should be cooked at this point. If you feel like it needs to cook more, place it in a warm oven for a few minutes until cooked through.
  • To make the mango salsa: Add chopped mango, cilantro, green onion, lime juice, sriracha, honey and salt in a bowl and mix well together. The longer it sits the more the flavors will blend. Ideally 5 minutes before placing over fish.
