MACADAMIA AND COCONUT CRUSTED MAHI MAHI WITH PINEAPPLE SALSA
I just returned from a fabulous trip from Hawaii, and I wanted to figure out a way to make a dish that reminded me of all of the island flavors-- here is the result! Mahi Mahi is a great Hawaiian fish that is easy to find here in the States (as opposed to Opah or Ono fish which are delicious but impossible to find here...). I also wanted to try making a pineapple salsa after visiting the Dole Pineapple Plantation, and it turned out really well-- sweet and spicy! I hope you enjoy this one! Aloha!

Steps:
- To make the salsa, prepare the pineapple by slicing off the top and the bottom, and cutting off the sides to remove all of the skin. Cut the peeled pineapple into 4 sections lengthwise, and remove the woody core in the middle. Dice the pineapple into 1/2 inch chunks.
- Combine the diced pineapple with the remaining salsa ingredients and set aside.
- In a food processor, finely grind the macadamia nuts. Mix well with the breadcrumbs and coconut.
- Heat the butter and olive oil over medium/ medium-high heat. Dip the mahi mahi fillets in the egg mixture, then coat well with the nut mixture. Fry for about 3-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and crispy on the outside.
- Top with the pineapple salsa.
