Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.

Step 3

Brush the Mahi Mahi fillets with the spice mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 4

Place the fillets on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and easily flakes with a fork.

Warm the Paleo-friendly taco shells in the oven or on the grill for a few minutes until they're slightly crisp.
