About Mahi mahi, frozen, wild caught
Mahi mahi is a popular ocean fish, also called dolphinfish or dorado, known for its firm texture, mild and slightly sweet flavor, and lean white flesh. The Hawaiian name mahi-mahi means "very strong," a nod to the fight it puts up on the line, and despite one of its other names it is not related to dolphins at all. It is a fast-growing, brilliantly colored fish, flashing green, gold, and blue, found in warm tropical and subtropical waters around the world.
Mahi mahi is a lean source of high-quality protein, low in fat and calories while supplying B vitamins, selenium, and potassium. Its sturdy, meaty fillets hold together well on the grill and stand up to bold seasonings, spice rubs, marinades, and bright tropical salsas, which is why it is a favorite for fish tacos, grilling, broiling, blackening, and pan-searing. It pairs especially well with pineapple, mango, citrus, and coconut.
Because it grows and reproduces quickly, mahi mahi is generally considered a more sustainable choice than many large ocean fish. Sold fresh or frozen and often with the skin removed, it is best cooked just until it flakes and turns opaque, since overcooking quickly dries out the lean meat.
