Description

A weeknight dinner that combines a crisp, golden Parmesan crust with flaky, mild mahi mahi, providing a restaurant-quality meal at home.


Ingredients

  • 20-24 oz mahi mahi (4 pieces)
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt
  • 2 eggs
  • Fresh cracked black pepper
  • 1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp parsley
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  2. Set up three shallow bowls: one with seasoned flour, one with whisked eggs, and one with Panko and Parmesan mixture.
  3. Season and coat the mahi mahi fillets with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, dip in egg, and press into the Panko mixture.
  4. Bake the fillets for 18-22 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Rest briefly and serve with lemon wedges or your chosen sauce.
