Pineapple Grilled Mahi with Coconut Fried Shrimp
| 4 Mahi-Mahi Fillets (5-6 oz. each) |
4 cloves Garlic (minced) |
| ½ lb. Shrimp (31/35 ct., peeled) |
1 tsp. Ginger (grated) |
| 4 slices Pineapple (cut in half) |
1 TB Light Brown Sugar |
| 2 oz. Soy Sauce |
½ cup Flour (seasoned with salt, 1 tsp. ginger powder and
pepper) |

1 cup Shredded Coconut |
| 1 oz. Dry Sherry |
3 eggs (beaten) |

In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, sherry, garlic, light brown sugar and
ginger. Marinate Mahi fillets and pineapple slices in soy sauce mixture for
15 minutes. Prepare a gas or charcoal grill with a very hot fire. Preheat frying
oil to 350 degrees. Bread shrimp by first coating with seasoned flour, patting
off excess, placing in egg mixture coating well, then rolling in coconut. Deep
fry coconut shrimp until golden brown, remove from grease, drain on a paper
towel and salt immediately after removing from oil. Reserve and keep shrimp
warm. Remove Mahi and pineapple from marinade, season with salt and pepper,
place on a very hot grill for 4-5 minutes each side turning as necessary to
prevent burning. To serve, place Mahi on a warm plate, top with grilled pineapple
slices and fried Coconut Shrimp.
