Prepping Mahi Mahi

Before cooking your mahi mahi fillets it is very important to thoroughly thaw your fish. We recommend thawing them in the refrigerator overnight. To thaw, remove product from original packaging, place in a resealable bag, and thaw in refrigerator for at least 7 hours. To thaw faster, remove product from original packaging, place in a resealable bag, and submerge bag in cold water for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Cook and consume within 2 days.

Seasoning Mahi Mahi

Mahi mahi is coveted for its mild, sweet flavor but can easily become overpowered if paired with bold or extra flavor options. Season lightly immediately before cooking with our Signature Seafood Seasoning, your favorite seasoning, or a homemade marinade.
