MAHI MAHI WITH COCONUT RICE AND MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, red pepper flakes, black pepper, ginger, green onion, and salt in a bowl. Add the mahi mahi and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack in the middle of the oven.
• Bring the rice, water, chicken bouillon, and 1 tablespoon butter to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Stir, and simmer uncovered until the rice has absorbed most of the coconut milk.
• While the rice is cooking, remove the mahi mahi from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Place fish in a large baking dish in a single layer. Broil in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes. If the fish browns too quickly, cover the baking dish with a sheet of aluminum foil.
• Melt 1 1/2 teaspoons butter and 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar in a skillet over medium-high heat. When the mixture begins to bubble, stir in mango cubes. Cook and stir until mango is tender, about 5 minutes. Serve by placing a mahi mahi fillet over a scoop of hot rice and top with the mango salsa.

GRILLED PACIFIC HALIBUT WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Finely dice the mango. Cut down the broad side of the mango, slightly off center, from the stem end to the tip end. The knife should scrape against the side of the pit. Repeat on the other side, cutting as close to the pit as possible. Cut the flesh from the sides of the pit, following the curve of the pit. Lay each half on your cutting surface, and score with the tip of your knife in a cross-hatch pattern, down to the skin but not through it. Turn the mango half inside out, and slice the cubes away from the skin. Then cut the cubes into very small dice.
• Toss the mango in a bowl with the chiles, cilantro, mint, jicama and lime juice. Season with salt if desired. Cover the bowl, and allow to sit for an hour while you prepare your grill.
• Heat a medium-hot grill (or heat an indoor griddle or grill pan). Season the halibut fillets or steaks with salt and pepper, and toss with the olive oil in a bowl. Place the fish directly over the coals, and grill for four to five minutes per side, depending on the thickness. The fish should be opaque all the way through, and you should be able to pull it apart with a fork.
• Remove the fish to a plate or a platter. Serve with the salsa spooned partially over the fish and partially on the side. Alternately, spoon the salsa onto plates and set the fish on top. Garnish with lime wedges and serve.

OVEN FRIED COCONUT CHICKEN WITH MANGO DIPPING SAUCE

• For the chicken tenders: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a wire rack on a sheet pan and spray with cooking spray.
• Create a 3-step breading process in 3 separate shallow bowls. Put the coconut flour in the first bowl, eggs and coconut milk in the second bowl, whisked to combine, and panko, coconut, salt and pepper in the last bowl, stirred to combine.
• Pat the chicken dry and add it to the coconut flour, shaking off any excess, then dip it in the egg mixture, making sure to coat the chicken entirely. Lastly, lay the chicken in the panko mixture, turning it over and pressing into the breading to coat evenly. Place on the wire rack. Spray the chicken with additional cooking spray. Bake until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
• For the dipping sauce: Whisk together the chutney, yogurt and jalapeno in a medium bowl.
• To serve this as a salad, combine the iceberg, carrots, tomatoes and red cabbage together in a bowl. Whisk the apple cider vinegar into the mango dipping sauce to make a dressing. Lightly dress the salad with the mango dressing. Top with the coconut chicken and serve.

DEEP-FRIED MAHI-MAHI MACADAMIA NUT FINGERS

Steps:

Fold in fresh mint to one bowl, horseradish to another and chili sauce to the third. Set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sherry, remaining teaspoon of sugar and cornstarch. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper.

In a mixing bowl combine the panko bread crumbs and the macadamia nuts. Mix well. Dip the fish in the macadamia nut mixture. Coat well.

Drain briefly on paper towels and serve with the tropical marmalade.

MACADAMIA-CRUSTED HALIBUT WITH MANGO CREAM SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine macadamia nuts, bread crumbs (Pretzels), 1 teaspoon olive oil, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Process until smooth. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Season fish with salt and black pepper. Using a brush, spread a thin layer of the egg whites on top of the fish and then sprinkle over the chopped macadamia nut mixture. You kind of have to smash it into the fish. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and crushed garlic in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear Halibut, macadamia side down, cook 3-4 minutes (if your oil is popping and going crazy, turn your heat down a bit), then turn over and sear the other side for 3 minutes. I use my handy fish spatula, that "Santa" brought me for Christmas. Once the fish is seared, place fish in a baking dish and cook in the oven for another 10-12 minutes. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine mango, cream, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened. This sauce is a little tart, but it compliments the sweet coconut rice very well. I put the sauce into the blender to make it smooth, I think you taste more mango flavor if you blend it. However, you can leave it as is.
