Ingredients

  • 2 wild caught mahi mahi filets, about 1 pound
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons garlic herb butter, divided

Instructions 

  • Preheat air fryer to 375°F.
  • While air fryer is preheating, rinse and pat dry fish.
  • Coat filets with olive oil. Cover filets (front and back) with seasonings and place in the air fryer basket.
  • Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until cooked through and an internal temperature reaches 137°F.
