2 Cook The Mahi Mahi
Cut mahi into 3 even pieces. Pat dry and seasoning with blackened seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add mahi-mahi to hot pan. Cook until mahi-mahi reaches desired doneness (medium-rare to well-done), 2-4 minutes per side for medium. Consuming raw or undercooked mahi-mahi may increase your risk for food-borne illness. Transfer to a plate. Reserve pan; wipe clean.
