If you’re deciding to start the new year off on a lighter note I have an excellent fish dish that’s filling as well as delicious. I like to serve it with some egg noodles, but you could use rice or any other side you like.
Mahi Mahi with Macadamia Nut Crust
1 mahi mahi fillet
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
herbs and seasonings to your liking
1/3 cup panko
1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter melted, or squeeze butter
fresh ground pepper
fresh ground pepper
Place mahi mahi in a shallow dish and cover with lime juice. Marinate for 1 hour turning occasionally.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine panko, macadamia nuts and salt.
Remove mahi mahi from lime juice and place in a baking dish. Cover with butter and sprinkle desired herbs and seasonings.
Spoon panko mixture atop mahi mahi, pressing lightly to adhere.
Bake until fish is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
