Fabulous Fillets

12/23/13

Now that Christmas is over, I'm sure almost everyone is sick of turkey, beef, ham, or basically any heavier food on their dining tables. I know I am! Justin and I made this Parmesan Encrusted Mahi Mahi dish that is probably one of the easiest and quickest meals I have made in a long time. It looks and tastes like it's restaurant quality but won't wreck your wallet. Even though it is only 15 degrees here in Chicago, you can still feel like you're on the islands eating this Mahi Mahi recipe =). Surf's up!

Parmesan Encrusted Mahi Mahi

Ingredients:

2 Frozen Mahi Mahi Fillets
1/4 Cup Parmesan Cheese
1/2 Cup Panko Bread Crumbs
2 Tbsp Butter
1/4 Tsp Red Pepper Flakes
1/4 Tsp Oregano
Salt & Pepper To Taste

*If you choose to add the side of potatoes, I used 3 small/medium red potatoes and 1 packet of McCormick Onion and Garlic seasoning mix.

Directions:
1. Thaw Mahi Mahi Fillets.
2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
3. In a bowl, mix the parmesan, bread crumbs, and spices together.
4. Melt the butter in a separate bowl and add it to the crumb mixture.
5. Heavily coat the Mahi Mahi fillets in the crumb mixture until they are fully covered on both sides.
6. Coat a baking dish with cooking spray and place the fillets into the dish, covering the tops with any extra bread coating.
7. If you are cooking the potato side dish, spread the potatoes around the baking pan evenly. They cook at about the same time degree as the fish, so you can save dishes!
8. Bake the fish for about 12-15 minutes until the fillets are white and flakey. Flip the potatoes halfway through and cook until golden brown.

Happy Holidays and Happy Eating!
