Nif's Grilled Fish Burritos

Submitted by Nif_H

"I only had mahi mahi once and that was over 18 years ago. There was some of this wonderful fish at a local fish market and I just had to figure something out to do with it. I went out on a limb tonight and tried something new. New for me, anyway! I hope you enjoy this and please feel free to add more toppings. You can even replace the parsley with cilantro if you really have to. LOL! I did not count the 30 minute marinating time. Enjoy!"
