Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 6-oz. frozen mahi mahi filets
- olive oil
- lemon pepper seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F.
- Spritz mahi mahi with olive oil spritzer and season with lemon pepper on both sides.
- Lay down piece of parchment paper on bottom of air fryer basket and place fish on top.
- Air fry at 400 degrees F for 12-14 minutes, or until cooked through. Edges will be golden brown, flesh will be white, and the fish will flake easily when done cooking
Notes
- Cooking time is frozen mahi mahi. If using thawed fish, decrease cooking time to 8-10 minutes.
- Cook until fish reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F.
- Storage: Store any leftover mahi mahi in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Gently reheat the fish in a hot pan or skillet or 350-degree F air fryer, just until warmed through so you don’t overcook it. Microwaving is not recommended.
- Ingredient notes: Use high-quality fish for best results.
- Special tools: An air fryer is obviously a must, an olive oil spritzer is awesome to have (though not mandatory), and a meat thermometer is also a must!
- Serve with: A simple veggie (haricot verts, or air fryer broccoli) and a simple carb (garlic bread or rice) is all you need.
