Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2: In a bowl, mix Panko breadcrumbs, chopped cilantro, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush the Mahi Mahi fillets with coconut milk and coat them in the breadcrumb mixture.
Step 3: Place the crusted fillets on a greased baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Step 4: While the fish is baking, prepare the mango salsa by combining diced mango, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Mix well.
Step 5: Serve the herb-crusted Mahi Mahi topped with coconut mango salsa, alongside the pineapple green salad.
