Mahi-mahi, also known as dolphinfish, is a popular saltwater fish prized for its firm texture, mild flavor, and versatility in cooking. Its flesh ranges from white to pinkish-white, and it is lean, with a delicate sweetness and a slightly dense consistency that holds up well to grilling, baking, or pan-searing. With its ability to take on various marinades and seasonings while retaining its natural flavor profile and its high protein content and low fat levels, mahi-mahi is a nutritious choice for seafood lovers seeking a flavorful and healthy meal option.
