Easy Baked Mahi Mahi is delicious and is a cinch to make! Lightly seasoned fillets are served with browned butter, garlic, herb and lemon sauce.

Easy Baked Mahi Mahi

salt (to season fish (approx.))

black pepper (to season fish (approx.))

lemon

Tablespoons butter

garlic

lemon juice

fresh parsley (chopped) (OR 1 teaspoon DRIED parsley)

Preheat oven to 400°F (204.4 C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray foil generously with non-stick baking spray.

Pat mahi mahi fillets dry using paper towels to absorb excess moisture. Season fish lightly on both sides with salt/pepper.

Cut large lemon into 6 round slices. Place 2 slices together (for each piece of fish) on the aluminum foil. Place each piece of fish on top of 2 lemon slices.

Bake at 400° F. (204.4°C.) for 10-15 minutes. **Time to fully cook depends on thickness of fillets. A &quot;general rule&quot; is fish should cook 10 minutes per inch of thickness. Fully cooked mahi mahi should have internal temperature between 137°F - 145°F. Use meat thermometer, so fish isn&#39;t undercooked OR overcooked. Fish should be slightly browned on top, and flake easily with a fork.

Make Browned Butter Sauce While Fish Bakes: Melt butter in medium saucepan on Medium-Low heat. Cook 3-4 minutes, stirring often, until bubbly and browned; butter will turn brown as the milk solids separate. Stir in garlic; continue cooking for 30 seconds. Remove pan from heat; add lemon juice and parsley (fresh or dried). Stir until combined.

To Serve: Remove fish from oven; Use spatula to transfer mahi mahi (keeping lemon slices underneath) to serving plates. Spoon butter sauce over each piece. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
