- Dip the mahi into flour, then dip into the egg, then dip the mahi into the bread crumbs.
- Set on a plate or tray and refrigerate.
- Remove all the skin of the lemons with a sharp knife and section out the lemons.
- Squeeze the remaining pulp, to extract the juice, and reserve.
- Just before starting to pan fry the mahi, place the butter and lemon juice in a small pan and melt over low to medium heat.
- When emulsified, mix in the reserved lemon sections, capers and parsley.
- Set aside and keep sauce warm.
- Heat oil in a large pan until fairly hot, and saute fish in batches until nice and brown.
