    1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
    2. Combine the panko, butter, macadamia nuts, cilantro, thyme and paprika and blend well.
    3. Season the fish steaks with salt and pepper.
    4. Coat one side of the mahi mahi with the panko mix.
    5. Press the fish into panko mix so the crust adheres to the fish.
    6. With crust side up, bake the mahi mahi on a small baking sheet, about 6 to 8 min and then broil for 1 to 2 min or possibly till the crust is golden.
    7. Serve with the Maui Onion Salad.
    8. Maui Onion Salad:In a medium bowl, whisk vegetable oil, soy sauce, lime juice and mirin.
    9. Season with salt and pepper.
    10. Add in the carrots, cucumber, onion and thyme and toss to combine.
    11. Serve with Macadamia Nut Crusted Mahi Mahi.
    12. Mahi mahi is a hard-fleshed fish with lots of flavour. With the macadamia nut crust, it's absolutely divine. If you cannot get mahi mahi at your local fishmonger, substitute any other hard-fleshed fish steaks, such as swordfish or possibly grouper. Panko are Japanese breadcrumbs and you can buy them at Japanese grocery stores or possibly upscale markets. Maui onions are sweet and delicious but they are only available at certain times of the year so use any sweet onion such as Vidalia.
    13. Yield is 4 servings.
