Air Fryer Mahi Mahi
This Air Fryer Mahi Mahi is not only a healthy choice, but it also requires minimal effort, leaving you with more time to kick back and relax. Plus, it’s so delicious; your taste buds will be doing a little happy dance!
### Ingredients:
- 2 Mahi Mahi fillets (fresh or frozen, your choice!)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular, if you prefer)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges (for that zesty kick!)
Instructions:
- First things first, if you’re working with frozen Mahi Mahi, be sure to let it thaw in the fridge overnight (or use the cold water method if you’re in a hurry). No fish blocks allowed here!
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). This is the part where your air fryer gets all hot and steamy – just like you when you’re at the gym.
- In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. This magical mixture is what will make your Mahi Mahi sing (no actual singing involved, though).
- Coat the Mahi Mahi fillets with the olive oil mix. Make sure to get it all over - we want every bite to be a flavor explosion!
- Place the fillets in the air fryer basket, making sure they’re not too cramped. We want them to have their personal space; nobody likes a fish drama.
- Cook for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through. You’ll know it’s done when the fish is flaky and cooked through. Just like your favorite movie, it’s suspenseful but sooo worth the wait!
- Remove from the air fryer, give them a squeeze of lemon, and voila! Your Air Fryer Mahi Mahi is ready to impress.
Now, all that’s left to do is plate it up and show it off like it’s the new star of your kitchen. Serve it with some veggies or rice, and enjoy your culinary victory. Happy cooking!
