Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat a grill pan over medium heat.

Step 2

Stir coconut milk, 2 tablespoons each cilantro and green onions, lime juice, garlic, ginger, and fish sauce together in a saucepan; bring to a boil.

Step 3

Brush mahi mahi fillets with enough sauce to coat; place into the hot grill pan. Cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 7 minutes per side.

Step 4

While the fish is cooking, cook remaining sauce at a boil until slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep warm until fish is done.

Step 5

Transfer fish to a serving platter. Drizzle warm sauce over top and garnish with remaining cilantro and green onions.
