Take everything you love about chicken Parm and swap in mahi-mahi (also known as dolphinfish), and you’ve got a lighter, fresher spin on the Italian-American classic.

Fillets get dredged in seasoned flour, dipped in egg, coated in Italian bread crumbs, and pan-seared until golden.

Then they’re topped with tomato sauce, mozzarella, and Parmesan and baked just until the cheese melts and the fish stays moist and flaky.

Forty-five minutes from counter to table.

Pro Tips

  • Pat the fillets very dry before dredging so the flour sticks and the breading stays crisp
  • Don’t overbake the fish; mahi-mahi dries out fast, so pull it as soon as the cheese is melted and bubbly
  • Use Italian-seasoned bread crumbs for built-in flavor without extra herbs
  • Serve with spaghetti and extra tomato sauce on the side for the full Parmesan experience
