    This was one of the best fish recipes I have ever made. I would give it more stars if I could. It had the presentation of being gormet, but was extremely easy to make. I used mahi filets and followed the recipe exactly. For the nuts, I used walnuts. Also, I put it in the oven for 10-minutes at 350, then put it on broil for about 3 minutes longer to make the outside crispy. Thanks for a great recipe !

    I made this with crushed up Cheerios (really) instead of corn flakes and with pecans. It was absolutely marvelous. I did the crushing in a food processor and added fresh parsley and pepper. It took longer to bake than the recipe states, but the mahi mahi filets I had were pretty thick, so I expected that. Still just wonderful. It's not really even necessary to bother with the glaze. Thanks so much for sharing this.
