1

Soak the plank in water for at least 2 hours, or longer if you can.
2

Place the mahi mahi fillets in a shallow dish and coat them with teriyaki sauce. Cover and refrigerate to marinate for at least 1 hour.
3

Meanwhile, mix the mangos, bell pepper, green onion, jalapeño pepper, and cilantro in a medium bowl. Season with lime juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined, then cover and refrigerate until serving to let the flavors blend.
4

Set up an outdoor grill for indirect heat. If using charcoal, arrange and light the coals under one half of the grill.
5

Drizzle olive oil and lemon juice over the fish fillets and season with chipotle seasoning, red pepper flakes, and hot pepper sauce. Take the plank out of the water and place the seasoned fillets on the plank.
6

Set the plank with the fish on the preheated grill over direct heat. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Move the plank with the fish to indirect heat (the cooler side of the grill); cover and cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 10 more minutes. Serve the fish hot, topped with the mango salsa.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
