This Hawaiian favorite white, sweet, moderately dense fish is most often served at luaus either baked or sauted.
Ingredients:
- 4 (6 ounce) mahi mahi fillets
- salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts, toasted, ground fine
- 1/4 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Preparation:
Salt and pepper each fillet as desired.
Combine the toasted macadamia nuts with softened but not melted butter. Add in panko breadcrumbs as well as a light amount of salt and pepper.
Lightly press breadcrumb mixture onto the top of fish and place fish into a pan with the olive oil. Saute fish on both sides until it bounces back slightly when pressed - about 5 minutes per side.
