Recipe of the Week: Grilled Mahi-Mahi

I was so excited about doing September's Asian Recipes of the Week that I had totally forgotten about the last week of August! o_O Well thankfully we grill fish every week and I have a trusty recipe I can share. This week's feature is an easy, healthy grilled mahi mahi, lightly marinated with tarragon, lime and garlic dressing, served with a side of sesame broccoli. I know it looks dull in the picture. But you don't need a ton of marinade with fish. Mahi-Mahi is typically mild tasting anyway, so you'd want to keep sauces, dressings, and marinades on the lighter side to complement, not cover, the taste your fish.

Now onto the recipe ...

Ingredients
2 mahi mahi fillets
2 tbsp fresh tarragon, chopped

1/4 cup coconut oil

Directions
Marinate mahi mahi fillets in a bag with all the other ingredients for 15-30 minutes.

2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp sesame oil
