Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces mahi mahi fillets Fresh or thawed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • as needed lemon wedges For serving

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to preheat for about 5 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Fish: Pat the mahi mahi fillets dry with a paper towel.
  3. Season the Fillets: In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Brush this mixture evenly over both sides of the fish.
Cooking
  1. Place the seasoned mahi mahi fillets in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching.
  2. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  3. Check for Doneness: The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C). If it’s not there yet, cook for a few more minutes.
Serving
  1. Carefully remove the fillets from the air fryer and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the fillets back in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes. For longer storage, wrap the cooked fillets tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 3 months.
