I've never been much of a seafood fan. But I'm trying to change that. It has tremendous health benefits and it adds another dimension of variety to my diet, which I'm always searching for.
I tried Mahi-Mahi at a restaurant a couple weeks ago and was quite impressed. It is a white fish with a mild taste (something I find absolutely necessary in fish). I decided I wanted to try grilling it myself.
I found this halibut recipe on Robyn's blog, Simply Fresh Dinners, a while back and was intrigued by the mango salsa. I figured it would be tasty with Mahi-Mahi. I was right. This is a quick, easy, light, healthy meal. Can't go wrong. Plus, Mahi-Mahi is much more reasonably priced than halibut. I suggest giving it a shot.
