Steps:
- Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, red pepper flakes, black pepper, ginger, green onion, and salt in a bowl. Add the mahi mahi and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack in the middle of the oven.
- Bring the rice, water, chicken bouillon, and 1 tablespoon butter to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Stir, and simmer uncovered until the rice has absorbed most of the coconut milk.
- While the rice is cooking, remove the mahi mahi from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Place fish in a large baking dish in a single layer. Broil in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes. If the fish browns too quickly, cover the baking dish with a sheet of aluminum foil.
- Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter and 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the mixture begins to bubble, stir in mango cubes. Cook and stir until mango is tender, about 5 minutes. Serve by placing a mahi mahi fillet over a scoop of hot rice and top with the mango salsa.

Tips:
- Choose fresh mahi-mahi. Look for firm, opaque flesh with no brown spots. The fish should smell briny, not fishy.
- Marinate the fish for at least 30 minutes. This will help to flavor the fish and keep it moist during grilling.
- Grill the fish over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
- Cook the fish until it is just opaque in the center. Overcooked fish is tough and dry.
- Serve the fish with your favorite sides. Grilled mahi-mahi pairs well with rice, vegetables, and tropical fruits.
Conclusion:
Grilled mahi-mahi with Thai coconut sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The fish is grilled to perfection and the coconut sauce is creamy and flavorful. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
