This fried mahi mahi has a crispy golden coating on the outside while still keeping the fish tender and flaky on the inside. Every bite is simply a little taste of fried fish perfection - yes, it really is that good. Plus, this mahi mahi recipe also comes with a creamy, slightly spicy aioli that takes it over the top, and it's so easy to make too. If you've got 20 minutes, then you've got enough time to make it.
