The fish is marinated in fresh lime juice (and therefore partly "cooked").

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 6 first-course servings

Ingredients

1 pound mahi-mahi fillets, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick strips
1 1/2 cups fresh lime juice
1 1/2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
