Grilled Mahi Mahi with Mango Ginger Chutney

I wanted to try out something new for dinner so I decided to make some grilled Mahi Mahi. This was so good. Recipe also works well with chicken. Or the pre made Ginger mango chutney that you can buy from Trader Joes. I used the george forman grill since its way too cold to go outdoors for grilling.

Ingredients

2 pounds mahi mahi
1 large ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and pureed 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar 2 tablespoons oil 3/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Mango Chutney
2 large ripe mangos, peeled, pitted, and chopped
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
1/2 tablespoon lime zest
1/4 teaspoon allspice

Preparation

Rinse Mahi mahi and pat dry. Pierce surface of fish with a fork and place in a resealable plastic bag with pureed mango, balsamic vinegar, oil, salt and pepper. Seal bag and marinate in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight. Combine all chutney ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir well. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes. Uncover and simmer over low heat for a few minutes more to cook off excess liquid; let cool. (May be made up to 2 weeks ahead. Store tightly covered in the refrigerator.) When ready to serve, remove fish from marinade and grill over medium coals for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side minutes, or until cooked through. Serve with Mango Chutney and rice.
