Ingredients

To make this exquisite Honey Soy Glazed Mahi-Mahi, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • Mahi-Mahi Fillets: 4 pieces, about 6 ounces each
  • Soy Sauce: 1/4 cup
  • Honey: 1/4 cup
  • Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
  • Ginger: 1 tablespoon, freshly grated
  • Lime Juice: 2 tablespoons
  • Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Salt and Pepper: to taste
  • Sesame Seeds: 1 tablespoon, toasted
  • Green Onions: 2, sliced thinly

Instructions

Creating the perfect Honey Soy Glazed Mahi-Mahi is simple with these step-by-step instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade:
    • In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, and olive oil. Whisk until the honey is fully dissolved and the marinade is well mixed.
  2. Marinate the Fish:
    • Place the mahi-mahi fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag.
    • Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are fully coated.
    • Cover the dish with plastic wrap or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse the fish.
  3. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) while the fish is marinating.
  4. Sear the Fish:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil.
    • Remove the mahi-mahi fillets from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off.
    • Sear the fillets in the skillet for about 2 minutes on each side, until they develop a golden-brown crust.
  5. Bake the Fish:
    • Transfer the seared fillets to a baking dish.
    • Pour the remaining marinade over the fish.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Garnish and Serve:
    • Once baked, sprinkle the fish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
    • Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
