Cornbread-Crusted Mahi-Mahi and Honey-BBQ Aioli Recipe - Home Chef (2)

The kids used to say “sweet” for anything cool, awesome, and, well, sweet. This meal brings the sweet in a multitude of ways: sweet cornbread crusting the delicate mahi-mahi, honey and BBQ sauce on top of that, bringing another level of sweet. Sweet potato wedges, starchy good, and corn on the cob, full of natural sweets… is there anything to say about this meal other than sweet? How about delicious? Tip: Having trouble cutting that wobbly sweet potato? Trim off 1/4" along its length and cut that section into 1/2" dice. Turn sweet potato onto its flat side. You now have a flat base to work from while you dice remaining sweet potato.

    Batter and Fry the Fish

    Line a plate with a paper towel.

    Test oil temperature by adding a pinch of batter to it. It should sizzle gently. If it browns immediately, turn heat down and let oil cool. If it doesn't brown, increase heat.Working in batches if necessary, dip mahi-mahi in batter, covering completely, then immediately and carefully place in hot oil. Cook until golden brown and mahi-mahi reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 3-5 minutes per side.Remove fish to towel-lined plate.
