Blackened Mahi Sandwich with Honey-crisp Apple Coleslaw 

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

If I find myself at the beach and holding a menu, 9 times out of 10 I am ordering blackened mahi. There’s something about the spices and flaky fish that screams coastal vibes.

Typically, these sandwiches are most certainly served with a delicious coleslaw piled high on top (and if its not, order something else). So, I decided to elevate this one and add honey-crisp apple to it. Not only does this add a level of sweetness, but it gives yet another layer of crunch that I find even more appetizing.

If you don’t have mahi, I highly suggest trying this recipe with grouper!
