Ingredients

• 4 6 oz fillets wahoo fish
• 1/4 cup tequila
• 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 Tbsp olive oil

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, mix tequila, lime juice, garlic, cumin, chili powder, cilantro, and olive oil to create the marinade.
2. Place wahoo fillets in a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fillets, seal the bag, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F (190°C).
4. Remove the fish from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and place on a plate. Season both sides with a pinch of salt.
5. Grill the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side until it’s cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
6. Transfer the grilled wahoo to serving plates and garnish with additional chopped cilantro and lime wedges, if desired.
