Ingredients

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup dry bread crumbs
1 cup flaked coconut
6 mahi mahi fillets (5 ounces each)
2 tablespoons peanut or canola oil
2 medium mangoes, peeled and cubed

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook fish in oil for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown on the outside and fish just turns opaque in the center.
Meanwhile, in a food processor, combine the mangoes, wine, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and pepper; cover and process until blended. Stir in basil. Serve with fish. Yield: 6 servings (1-1/2 cups sauce).

A bitg hit. I only had one fresh mango so i added some canned mango and subed the fresh basil with dried, but it was still absolutely delicious!!! I was skeptical while I was making it but it turned out great. I will definitely make this again.

Awesome recipe! I put the coconut in a blender to finely chop it. Didn't have Mango so used pineapple and added a Habanero pepper for a little spice. The fish was so good, little sweet but you could still taste the fish through the crust. We used Walleye as it is freshly caught in this area, more of a delicate fish then the Mahi Mahi but the flavors still worked great.
