Though we begin to near the end of summer, we continue to witness stubbornly high temperatures here in Los Angeles. Despite the coastal breeze, I find myself begrudgingly seeking refuge within the walls of my air conditioned home.
To my fellow epicureans, it may come as no surprise that with the galling humidity comes a few necessities: fresh fish, seasonal fruits, and chilled chardonnay. These seasonal essentials bring me to one of my all-time favorite recipes…
2-4 8 oz. boneless skinless Mahi Mahi steaks
1 egg
3/4 c. Panko flakes
3 cloves garlic
1 tbsp. seasoned parmesan cheese
1 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

1. Thaw steaks.
2. Beat egg in separate bowl and set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, mix Panko flakes, sesame seeds, and parmesan cheese.
4. Dip steaks in egg and then coat in Panko mix. Set aside.
