Ingredients

COCONUT RICE:
1/2 cup sliced yellow onions
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
5 garlic cloves smashed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin
1 pinch cayenne
4 skin-on troll-caught mahi mahi fillets - (6 to 8 oz ea)
1 cup coconut milk
1 1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1 cup long-grain white rice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
TROPICAL SALSA:
1 ripe mango peeled, seeded, and diced
1 ripe avocado peeled, seeded, and diced
1/2 cup diced fresh pineapple
1/4 cup minced red onions
1/4 cup minced red bell peppers
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons minced jalapeño
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 pinch salt
GARNISH:
Toasted coconut flakes
Chopped cilantro

Steps:

In a bowl, combine the onions, oil, orange and lime juices, cilantro, garlic, salt, cumin, and cayenne. Place the fish in a large, non-reactive baking dish. Pour the marinade over the fish, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 hour. Preheat a grill, and lightly oil the grill rack with vegetable oil. Remove the fish from the marinade. Place on the oiled grill and cook, skin-side up, until marked, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Turn carefully with a spatula and cook, skin-side down, until the fish is just cooked through, about 4 minutes, depending upon thickness. Remove from the grill. Spoon the Coconut Rice into the center of 4 large plates. Arrange 1 fillet onto each serving of rice and top with the Tropical Salsa. Garnish with toasted coconut and cilantro, and serve. For the Coconut Rice: In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk, water, salt, and sugar. Bring to a boil. Add the rice, stir well, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer undisturbed until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is fluffy, about 20 to 24 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit without stirring for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and add the cilantro. Adjust seasoning, to taste. Serve hot. For the Tropical Salsa: Combine the mango, avocado, pineapple, onions, bell peppers, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeño, garlic, and salt in a bowl and gently fold to combine. Adjust seasoning to taste. Let sit for 30 minutes before serving for the flavors to blend. This recipe yields 4 servings.
