Mahi-Mahi with Fresh Cilantro & Kiwi Chutney

Cilantro and Kiwi? What the…?

No. Seriously. Try it. It’s amazing.

It’s like salsa. But bright green. And spicy. And slightly sweet. And delicious.

We saved the leftovers and ate it on chips the next day.

Mom… you have to make this. I know you’ll like this one.

    Kiwi! Wow, what an unusual component for chutney… but I totally understand how it could taste AMAZING with mahi-mahi!

    Thanks!

    I know this post is old, but I just have to comment on how DELICIOUS it is.

    I made it last night for my husband’s birthday dinner, and we both loved it. I never would have thought to combine cilantro, kiwi, and jalapeño, but the taste was amazing. Plus it just looked beautiful. We used sea bass instead of mahi mahi, which we couldn’t find, but the results were still great. We’ll definitely be making it again. Thanks for the recipe!
