Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a medium bowl, stir together the nuts, panko, flour, and butter. Set aside.
Place a piece of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and brush it liberally with vegetable oil.
Place the mahi mahi on the foil and sprinkle each fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Bake for 5 minutes.
Remove from the oven and brush each fillet with the coconut milk.
Divide the nut mixture among the tops of the 4 fillets, patting the mixture to spread and adhere to the fillets.
Return to the oven and bake for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to stand 10 minutes before serving.
