Ingredients
  

  • 2 6oz mahi mahi filets
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp chopped parsley for garnishing (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Take a sheet tray and place the Mahi Mahi filets on it. Now brush olive oil on all sides of the filets and set aside.
  • Mix black pepper, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and kosher salt in a small bowl. Use this mixture to season the filets. Rub the seasoning well on the fish to allow the flavors to infuse. Allow to marinate for a few minutes.
  • Get your grill ready by preheating it and lightly oiling the grates over medium-high heat. When the grill is hot, place the Mahi Mahi filet flesh-side down. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side till you get your desired doneness.
  • Take the fish off the grill and brush with melted butter. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.

Notes

Although Mahi Mahi can be eaten medium-rare, most people prefer it well done. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the center of the filet. A temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit indicates that it is well done.
