For extra crispy results, lightly toast the panko bread crumbs in a dry skillet before mixing with the spices. Ensure the mahi mahi fillets are patted dry before breading to help the panko adhere better. Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of your mahi mahi fillets. Fish is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Serve with a vibrant slaw, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad for a complete and balanced meal. The seasoning can be adjusted to your preference. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a touch of heat or substitute with other spice blends like Italian seasoning or Old Bay.
