Summery Mahi Mahi Tacos

Summer is just around the corner! So enjoy this yummy and colorful dish that your family and friends will love. Simple, delicious, and healthy, these tacos are only 7 points per serving on Weight Watchers (points will vary with condiments and type of fish). If I had a grill I would have grilled the fish, but I got great results by broiling it. The mahi mahi only takes about 8-10 minutes to cook per side. I served it with a cherry tomato salad with basil and mozzarella. So tasty!

Broil for 8 minutes; flip fish and brush with marinade again. Cook until fish is no longer translucent in middle, about 8-10 minutes more depending on thickness of fish.
