Grilled Mahi-Mahi with Escabeche Sauce

Adolfo Garcia, RioMar. Adolfo's love of fresh seafood and his Panamanian ancestry are reflected in both the menu at RioMar and this recipe. Escabeche is a traditional Spanish way of preserving game meat with an acidic marinade, which was adapted for the more-available fish all across Latin America. This dish turns the marinade into a sauce, eliminating the need for hours in the fridge.
