Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Ginger-Lime Mahi Mahi Tacos.
Step 1
Start by heating a generous splash of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, creating the perfect sizzle for your mahi mahi.
Step 2
While the oil warms up, season your mahi mahi fillets with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, giving them a flavorful boost.
Step 3
Once the oil is hot, gently place the fillets in the skillet and let them cook for about three minutes on each side.
Step 4
You’re looking for a beautiful golden brown color and a firm texture that signals they’re no longer translucent in the center.
Step 5
While the fish is cooking, let’s whip up a zesty dressing.
Step 6
In a bowl, whisk together creamy sour cream, fresh lime juice, minced ginger, ground cumin, a pinch of cayenne pepper, and adjust with salt and pepper to your liking.
Step 7
Set this vibrant dressing aside to let the flavors meld.
Step 8
Now, let’s create a refreshing salsa! In another bowl, combine diced mango, juicy pineapple, creamy avocado, and a touch of minced jalapeno for a little kick.
Step 9
This fresh mix will add a burst of flavor to your tacos.
Step 10
To bring it all together, take a warmed tortilla and place a perfectly cooked mahi mahi fillet right in the center.
Step 11
Top it off with a generous scoop of your tropical mango salsa, drizzle on that zesty ginger-lime dressing, and finish with a sprinkle of fresh chopped cilantro for a pop of color and flavor.
Step 12
Enjoy your delicious mahi mahi tacos, bursting with fresh ingredients and vibrant flavors that will transport you straight to a sunny beach!.
