firm texture that is perfect for poaching and grilling and baking and frying. When cooking this

fish will turn you off eating seafood forever; overcooking it will give you a rubbery, tough,
and dry result.

This is crucial in determining the cooking time as well as the other adjustments you have to
make.

What Experts Say

Expert cooks have a smart advice on what temperature to cook mahi mahi. They say about
350 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit is enough to cook the meat through. The cooking time is 10
minutes per inch of fish at the minimum. If you use a higher temperature, you will have to
adjust your cooking time accordingly. The higher temperature you will use, the shorter your
cooking time should be. It is not advisable though that you go beyond 450 degrees because
the risk of burning your dish goes higher as well.

Regardless of what experts say we suggest you check your fish every five minutes or so to see
if it is cooking right. Your test for doneness is by using a fork. If the fish flakes easily from
the skin already, it is done.
