It's Mahi Mahi Time

We found some very nice mahi mahi at Trader Joe's Saturday for a great price, so I decided to adapt a Bon Appetit recipe to go with it. I served it with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. It was fantastic!

Baked Mahi Mahi with Paprika Lemon Butter
3 tbsp. butter, at room temperature
2 tbsp. paprika
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper (I am thinking a tsp. of Paula Deen's House Seasoning would make a nice sub for the salt & pepper)
4 mahi mahi fillets, about 5 oz. each and 3/4" thick
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a 13 x 9 baking pan. Mix everything but the fish together. Pat fish dry with paper towels and spread both sides with butter mixture. Add a little extra salt & pepper. Put in baking dish and bake 10 minutes or so, until it is cooked through & flakes easily. Serves 4.
