Ingredients

• About 20-24 ounces of mahi mahi or other fish such as cod, or tilapia; sectioned into 4 individual pieces
• 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon cayenne
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 2 tablespoons extra- virgin olive oil or canola oil
• 4 low-FODMAP, gluten-free buns or thick bread
  • I used UDI’s Classic Hamburger Buns
  • Can also use my low-FODMAP Multigrain Sandwich Bread
• 1-2 tomatoes, sliced
• 1 cup lettuce, such as romaine or bibb lettuce
• low-FODMAP Pickles
• low-FODMAP Special sauce, or low-FODMAP Tartar sauce (optional)

Directions

• Combine the paprika, cayenne, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper in a small bowl
• Rinse and pat dry mahi mahi fillets
• Sprinkle the spice mix evenly over each filet, rubbing it on all sides
• In a non-stick skillet set over medium-high, heat 1 tablespoon of oil (I love cast iron)
  • Can also grill over medium-high heat
• Add 2 of the mahi mahi filets and cook, undisturbed until they’re just beginning to blacken, about 4 minutes
• Flip the filets and cook for another 4 minutes

• Transfer to a plate, repeat with the other 2 mahi mahi fillets and oil
• Serve on the low-FODMAP buns with condiments and toppings as desired
• Pair this with my Low-FODMAP creamy coleslaw, my Low-FODMAP 5 minute pickles and Low-FODMAP special sauce…SO GOOD!
