We used this recipe to cook up the wahoo we had left over from last year's fishing trip. It was so delicious, I would try it on any fish. And I recommend grilling if possible - it really adds flavor.
Ingredients
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
6 fresh garlic cloves
1/3 cup fresh cilantro or parsley
2 tablespoons Cajun seafood seasoning
1 lemon, juice of
6 wahoo fillets, about 1/2 inch thick
lemon wedge (to garnish)
Directions
Spray grill with nonstick spray or brush with veggie oil to prevent sticking. Preheat on high for about 10 minutes. Mix first six ingredients in a blender. Puree into a smooth sauce. When ready to cook, brush both sides of fillets with sauce. Place fillets on grill and cook, turning once or twice. Brush more sauce as needed.Fish is done when it flakes easily (about 5 minutes). Serve with lemon wedges.
Notes: I used a tsp of dried parsley instead of fresh and a little less garlic than called for. I used Old Bay seasoning instead of cajun seasoning. I let the fish sit in the marinade before grilling. Careful to not overcook the fish. It doesn't take long.

Olive Oil Lime-Garlic Marinade
This is for you Lyndzee! :)
This is an easy delicious marinade that can be used on any meat, fish, or veggies. Last night I marinated chicken and veggies, cooked them in a skillet, and served them over brown rice. It was quite yummy!
Prep time: 10 minutes
Marinate time: 4 hours to overnight
RECIPE TIP: This marinade can be made quickly in a blender or food processor, or if desired, mince garlic and combine with the remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Use it to marinate meat or your favorite fresh summer vegetables.
Ingredients
2 large cloves garlic
1/2 cup olive oil (I used less)
1/3 cup lime juice
2 tablespoons grated lime peel
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
In blender or food processor, with machine running, add garlic. Add remaining ingredients. Process until blended; scraping down sides, if necessary. Pour marinade into bowl or plastic food storage bag. Add about 2 pounds meat or 4 to 5 cups vegetables; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate**. Marinate 4 hours to overnight. Grill or broil meat. Serve vegetables with slotted spoon.
Makes about 1 cup marinade
**If desired, vegetables can be marinated at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours.
