Equipment
- Air Fryer
Ingredients
- 2 Mahi Mahi fillets (5 to 6 ounces each)
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 2 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
- black pepper optional
To serve
- melted butter optional
- lemon wedges
Instructions
- Pat the mahi mahi fillet dry thoroughly with a paper towel.
- Brush in olive oil on all sides. Sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning on the fillets, ensuring it's seasoned all around. Add black pepper if you want a bit of an extra kick.
- Place the mahi mahi fillets in the air fryer.
- Air fry the fillets at 390 degrees F for 7 to 8 minutes until cooked. Or until the internal temperature of the fish is around 135 degrees F.
- Drizzle with melted butter and serve with lemon wedges and a side of vegetables.
Notes
- For frozen mahi mahi fillets, thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Alternatively, you can submerge the frozen fillets in a bowl of warm water until thawed.
- Make sure to pat dry before cooking.
- Mahi mahi fillets I used are close to 6oz each. For bigger fillets, increase the cooking time accordingly.
- Make sure not to overcook as they end up rubbery.
