1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 pounds mahi mahi filets
2 tablespoons butter melted, plus more for serving

1/2 tablespoon smoked paprika, 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Pat the mahi dry and place it on the prepared sheet tray.
1 1/2 pounds mahi mahi filets
Brush both sides with the butter and season with the spice mixture, use it all!
2 tablespoons butter
Bake for 10-13 minutes until an internal temperature reaches about 135°F.
Turn the broiler on high and broil until lightly browned on top and the fish reaches an internal temperature of 145°F. Serve immediately with more butter for dipping.

Notes

Dry It Off – Pat those mahi mahi filets with paper towels—wet fish is slipperier than a eel!
Butter Up – Brush that melted butter like you’re painting a masterpiece—juicy is the goal!
Spice It Right – Mix your simple seasoning in a small bowl—no clumps, just yum!
Check the Heat – Use a meat thermometer for that 145°F internal temperature—no guessing games!
Broil Fast – Watch it under the broiler—golden brown in a flash, not burnt like my first try!
Foil Trick – Line your prepared baking sheet with aluminum foil—cleanup’s easier than dodging a fish pun!
