I found this recipe and can't wait to try it. From the West Hawaii Today newspaper. Chris Schlesinger and John Willoughby, authors of Big Flavors of the Hot Sun , suggest serving the fish with coconut rice. Ingredients:
32 ounces mahi mahi fillets, cut diagonally a half-inch thick |
1 teaspoon vegetable oil |
salt and pepper |
3 tablespoons honey |
1/2 cup macadamia nuts, toasted and crushed |
1 cup fresh pineapple, diced |
1/2 cup pineapple juice |
1 tablespoon minced ginger |
2 tablespoons scallions, thinly sliced |
1/4 cup lime juice |
1 teaspoon chili pepper, minced (red or green) |
Directions:
1. Rub fillets lightly with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. Place fish on grill over a medium-hot fire; cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side.
3. While second side is cooking, coat the exposed side lightly with honey and sprinkle with crushed mac nuts.
4. Flip again; cook another minute or until crust is golden brown.
5. Check for doneness by cutting into a piece; it should be completely opaque all the way through.
6. Remove fish from grill, cut each in half, and serve.
7. Pineapple-Ginger Relish:.
8. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl; mix well.
9. Refrigerate until ready to use.
10. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
