Macadamia Nut Crusted Mahi - Mahi with Chile Coconut Butter Sauce Recipe
About: Of the many Hawaiian foods that have gained popularity around the world, two of the most prominent favorites are mahi–mahi and macadamia nuts. Here, Bali Hai Chef Kim Martin incorporates both of these island treats into one delicious dish. Remember: good chefs acknowledge that one of the best ways to consistently attain culinary success is to always use high quality ingredients. Buy fresh fish from a local resource, or purchase a product that has been individually quick-frozen. Wahoo, called 'Ono' in Hawaii, can also be substituted.
Cook Tip: Serve with stir-fried vegetables and garlic mashed potatoes or steamed rice.
