Where do you buy fish for less money?
Fish isn’t cheap, but it is so good for you! We actually like to buy our fish at Sam’s. You can buy it where they are frozen individually so it is very easy to take out only what you need.
If you have an Aldi grocery store nearby, they also have good buys on fish. You might also check local markets in your town for a great deal on fresh fish.

Why would you bother grilling this is you’re just going to wrap it in foil and steam it?
I find that it really adds to the flavor of the seasonings on the Mahi Mahi.
We really loved fish, could never cook it right, now I can, taste good
This is now a family favorite and my husband is NOT a fan of fish! I omit the italian seasoning and simply brush with olive oil, fresh , minced garlic,paprika , a little sea salt
and cayenne pepper and grill until done. This is super easy and delicious!! Thank you
