Description

Mahi Mahi Fillet is a clean, boneless cut from a fish with firm meat and a mild flavor, ideal for various culinary preparations. The mahi mahi is a tropical pelagic fish found in warm waters, primarily in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Its name comes from Hawaiian and means "strong strong," referring to its resistance when caught.

This fish is prized for its compact texture and delicate flavor, which is not too strong nor too sweet, making it a versatile ingredient for recipes such as grilled dishes, baked preparations, ceviches, or stews. Furthermore, mahi mahi fillet is low in fat and a good source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, B-complex vitamins, and minerals like selenium, contributing to a healthy diet.

In other regions of Latin America, this fish may be called dorado or dorado del mar (sea dorado). However, the term mahi mahi is widely recognized in international cookbooks and menus.
