Learn how to cook tender and flaky Air Fryer Mahi Mahi Fillets for a perfect easy weeknight dish. This white fish is served with a fresh mango salsa for the perfect healthy and satisfying meal.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 2 mahi mahi fillets
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled, pitted, and diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely diced
  • 1/2 onion, finely diced
  • 1 lime, juiced

Instructions

  1. Spray the bottom of your air fryer basket lightly with the nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Pat each mahi mahi fillet dry with a clean paper towel.
  3. Then, brush the top of each fillet with the olive oil and sprinkle the sea salt on top.
  4. Lay the fish inside the basket of your air fryer and set the temperature to 380°F for 8-10 minutes.
  5. While the fish is cooking, make the salsa. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mango, jalapeno, onion, and lime juice. Stir to combine.
  6. When the fish is done cooking, use a fork the check and make sure the inside is flaky and opaque. You can also use an instant read thermometer to ensure that the inside of the fillets reach a temperature of 145°F.
  7. Serve the fish hot, with a generous serving of the mango salsa on the side.

Notes

  1. You can double this recipe depending on how big your air fryer basket is.
  2. You can use whatever type of white fish you like. Mahi mahi is nice because it is juicer and neutral in flavor.
  3. Store any leftover cooked fish and salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
