Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 large eggs
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
• 4 (6 ounce) mahi mahi fillets
• 1 cup mango salsa
• 0.5 cup finely chopped toasted macadamia nuts

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 2

Heat olive oil and butter in an oven-proof pan over low heat until butter is melted. Remove from the heat.

Step 3

Beat eggs in a small, shallow dish. Mix Parmesan and flour in a second shallow dish.

Step 4

Season mahi mahi fillets with salt and pepper. Dip into beaten egg. Lift up so excess egg drips back in the bowl. Press into Parmesan mixture to coat both sides. Lay each fillet into the melted butter mixture, then turn each piece over to coat. Sprinkle macadamia nuts evenly over each fillet.

Step 5

Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 11 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.

Step 6

Place each fillet on a serving plate and top with 1/4 cup mango salsa.
