Just make sure to let them thaw out in the fridge first.To store: Place your fish into an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.To freeze: Make sure your cooked fish has fully cooled, and then place it in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 months.To reheat: Reheat your fish by heating it over medium heat in a skillet or by placing it in a 350°F (175°C) oven until heated thoroughly. ❓ How Do You Tell If Grilled Mahi Mahi Is Done? There are two easy ways to tell if your fish is done cooking. First, the color of your mahi mahi should be opaque. Secondly, it should flake easily with a fork! If it is resistant to flaking, it isn’t done cooking yet! ❓ How Do You Keep Fish Moist On The Grill? First, it’s important to make sure you are cooking your fish at the correct temperature (medium-high). If you cook it on a grill that is too hot, it can dry out the fish. Secondly, make sure you pat your fish dry and coat it with oil to retain moisture and keep it from sticking to the grill grates! ❓ Does Mahi Mahi Fall Apart On The Grill? Mahi mahi is a fantastic fish for grilling! The firm texture of the meat helps to keep it together so it won’t fall apart while it’s on the grill.
