While the potatoes are cooking, season the thawed Mahi Mahi fillets with your favorite seafood seasoning.

When the potatoes have cooked for 25 minutes, remove from oven, then add the asparagus to the baking sheet and the seasoned Mahi Mahi. Place a sheet of parchment paper under the Mahi Mahi fillets making sure no paper hangs over the edge. Drizzle olive oil over the asparagus and gently toss to coat.

Serve immediately.

Recipe FAQs

What temperature should Mahi Mahi be cooked to?

A quick way to test Mahi Mahi for doneness is to use a fork and see if it flakes easily, however, the internal should be around 137 degrees F. Be sure as to not overcook it – as it will dry out quickly.

Can I cook frozen Mahi Mahi fillets?

I would not recommend cooking the Mahi Mahi fillets frozen. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator or if you need to quick thaw, place the frozen Mahi Mahi fillets into an air-tight bag and place the bag into a bowl of cold water until they thaw.

Can I use regular potatoes or larger potatoes?

Yes, you could use any potato you’d like in this recipe. However, if they are larger potatoes they most likely would need to cook longer.

Can I cook this all at once instead of in stages?

No, you need to cook the potatoes first for half their cooking time before then adding the vegetables and Mahi Mahi fillets. Otherwise you will overcook the vegetable and Mahi Mahi.
