Steps

1
Preheat oven to 400°F and arrange oven rack 8 inches from broiler element. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
2
Meanwhile, in a mortar and pestle, combine garlic with a pinch of salt and work into a paste. In a medium bowl, whisk together garlic paste, lime zest, egg yolk, lime juice, mustard, and chili powder. Whisking constantly, drizzle in canola and extra-virgin olive oils in a slow, steady stream to form a thick, emulsified sauce. Season aioli with salt and pepper. Alternatively, using a blender, blend garlic with egg yolk, lime juice, mustard, and chile powder; then drizzle in canola oil in a thin, steady stream until a thick, emulsified sauce forms. Whisk in olive oil (do not add olive oil in blender) and season with salt and pepper.
3
Pat bluefish fillets dry with paper towels and arrange on baking sheet. Using an offset spatula or butter knife, spread aioli evenly all over fillets. Bake until bluefish reaches 135°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 7 minutes. Remove from oven and turn on broiler.
4
Broil bluefish until lightly browned and bubbling on top and an instant-read thermometer registers 140°F when inserted in center, about 4 minutes. Transfer bluefish to plates, sprinkle with parsley, and serve with lime wedges.
