Mix the paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until uniform

Step 2/4

• ¾ cups water
• 2 Trader Joe’s frozen mahi-mahi fillets

Pour the water into an Instant Pot. Set the pot’s rack (with the handles up) or a pressure-safe trivet inside the pot. Use aluminum foil as baking dish in the cooker. Stack the fillets in the dish, sprinkling each with an even coating of the spice mixture (about 1/2 teaspoon on each). Set the butter on top of the fillets and lock the lid onto the pot.

Spoon some (or all) of the buttery “sauce” in the baking dish over the fish
