Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika to make the marinade.
Place the Mahi Mahi fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Turn the fillets to coat them evenly. Allow them to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Brush the grill grates with some oil to prevent sticking.
Place the marinated Mahi Mahi fillets on the grill, skin-side down if they have skin. Grill for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
During the last minute of grilling, place a small amount of butter on top of each fillet to melt.
Remove the Mahi Mahi from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
Sprinkle the grilled fish with chopped fresh parsley for garnish.
Serve the grilled Mahi Mahi with lemon wedges on the side for extra flavor.
