Special Precautions and Tips:
- If you don't have green curry paste, you can substitute with red or yellow curry paste. Adjust the amount to your desired level of heat.
- The marinade will work best if you allow the mahi mahi to marinate for at least 30 minutes, but it can also be marinated for up to 24 hours.
- Be careful not to overcook the fish, as it will become dry and tough.
