Ingredients
- 1/4 cup macadamia nuts plus additional for garnish
- 1 1/2 cups cilantro lightly packed
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- 2-3 tablespoons coconut oil melted
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 fillets of mahi mahi 12 ounces
- Pineapple chunks for skewering
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and place the macadamia nuts on a small baking sheet. Bake the nuts until they are toasted and golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.
- Add the nuts into a small food processor and process until they are slightly crumbly. Add in the cilantro, ginger, and lime juice. Process until the cilantro is broken down.
- Add in 2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil and process until well combined. I like my pesto thick, so I stopped there. You may add additional oil if you like it runnier. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Cut the Mahi Mahi into large chunks and place into a medium bowl. Pour half of the pesto on top of the fish and stir until the fish is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
- Preheat your grill to medium heat. Divide the fish and as much pineapple as you want evenly between two skewers. * Place the skewers on the grill and cook until the fish is white throughout and the pineapple has nice grill marks – about 2-4 minutes per side.
- Serve the skewers with the remaining pesto and top with remaining toasted macadamia nuts.
