Coconut-Crusted Mahimahi with Pan-Roasted Garlic, Rosemary, and Tomato Sauce

This vibrant coconut-crusted mahimahi offers a sophisticated twist on a high-protein dinner. The mild, firm texture of the fish is perfectly complemented by a crisp, tropical coconut coating, while the pan-roasted garlic and rosemary sauce adds a fragrant depth. The addition of fresh tomatoes and a hint of rice wine vinegar provides a bright, acidic lift that cuts through the richness of the coconut, resulting in a beautifully balanced savoury dish.

Ideal for a quick weeknight meal or a healthy weekend lunch, this recipe is packed with lean protein and heart-healthy fats. The method of starting the fish in a frying pan and finishing it in a hot oven ensures the crust remains light and golden without overcooking the delicate flesh. Serve it alongside some steamed greens or a light quinoa salad for a complete, nutritious meal.
