Mahimahi
Season each filet with salt and pepper. Mix the toasted macadamia nuts
into the soft butter. Add in panko flakes. Spread top of fish with crust and sear
quickly in 2 Tbsp olive oil in hot sauté pan on both sides.
Citrus Aka Miso Sauce
In saucepan, reduce wine by a third. Add cream and reduce by another third.
Over low heat, stir in aka miso paste, then slowly add butter, incorporating
each cube. Be careful not to heat too high, or the sauce will break. Finish
seasoning with lime juice, salt and white pepper. Be careful with salt,
as miso paste is also salty.
