Easy Mahi Mahi Dinner
A very tasty but still quick and easy Mahi Mahi Dinner
Ingredients
- 2 6 oz. fillets mahi mahi
- olive oil
- 1 lemon
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 large russet or idaho potato
- 2 tbsp. grated parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
- 10 asparagus spears medium size
- 3 cloves garlic chopped
Instructions
- If your fillets are frozen just leave them in the wrappings and put them in a bowl of water to thaw while you get the rest of the stuff started. If you live where you can get fresh Mahi Mahi fillets, lucky you! Just have your fish monger (person) debone and skin the fillets for you.
- So, if you don't have an air frier set your oven at 400 and spray a cookie sheet with olive oil. Now peel the potato and slice it into about 3/8" slices. Lay them out in the air frier or cookie sheet and l lightly spray them with them with a little olive oil. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper. Now lightly cover them with grated parmesan. Set the air frier at 400°F and 8 minutes and check on them at 6 minutes. Depending on your air frier they might be done. Poke one of them with a fork and you will know when they are done. If they are done before everything else, just let them rest in the air frier and when the Mahi Mahi and the asparagus are just almost ready to serve give them another minute in the air frier (or oven).
- Now put a skillet on that can handle the asparagus spears laid out at medium low heat. Plus a skillet at medium high for the Mahi Mahi. Eyeball just enough olive oil to cover the bottom of each skillet. And put in one half of the butter in each, the juice from 1/4 of the lemon and the chopped garlic to the asparagus skillet. Also toss in the lemon rind for a little more flavor. Stir them together.
- Rinse off the spears and cut the ugly butt ends off of them. And lay them out in the skillet. Turn them over a few times as they cook. When they are a little more firm then you want them to be turn off the heat and they will finish cooking as the skillet cools off.
- While the asparagus is cooking lay the fillets in a bowl and lightly drizzle with olive oil and the juice from half of the lemon. And sprinkle in a little lemon pepper if you have any. Turn them over a couple of times getting them coated with oil and juice.So now lay them out in the skillet and pour the liquids from the bowl on them. Plus the lemon rind.
- Give them 3 minutes a side depending on the thickness. The best way to check to see if they are done is to lightly poke with a table fork and if it wants to flake apart a little they are done. Now serve up and enjoy your Easy Mahi Mahi Dinner.
