Pan seared mahi mahi topped with a chili lime butter compound. A quick 15 minute fish recipe that is full of flavor and healthy!

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons salted butter, room temperature (or ghee for paleo/Whole30)
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• zest from 2 limes
• 4 wild caught Mahi Mahi filets, thawed (any other wild caught fish will do!)
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• salt and pepper

Directions

• In a small bowl, combine the butter, chili powder and lime zest. Stir to combine. Set aside.
• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Season the fish filets with salt and pepper. Melt the coconut oil in the hot pan, then add the fish filets. Cook about 6 minutes per side, until golden brown and the fish is cooked through with an internal temperature of 145 degrees.
• Transfer the cooked fish to a plate and top with 1 tablespoon of the chili lime butter. Serve warm with wedges of lime.
