7 steps
Ingredients
- 2 tilapia fillets
- Dipping Mixture
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/3 cup cornstarch
- Coconut Coating
- 1 1/2 cups coconut flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon curry powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- Peanut Sauce
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons curry sauce (can be bought in stores or can be made by combining coconut milk and green curry powder)
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 pinch ginger
- 1 pinch sage
- 1/4 teaspoon brown sugar (optional)
Directions
-
1In a wide bowl/container, mix coconut flakes, curry powder, garlic powder, paprika (set aside).
-
2In a small bowl, mix 1 egg, 1/4 cup water and 1/3 cup of corn starch.
-
3Dip the Tilapia fillets in the egg mixture. Use a plastic bag to cover your hands when handling fillets, if preferred. Coat the fillets thoroughly with the coconut flake mixture, especially along the top, as this dramatically improves the appearance of the dish while baking.
-
4Bake the Tilapia fillets at 350 degrees for about 12-14 minutes (or however long until the fish is fully white). Use cooking spray or butter the pan so the fish does not stick.
-
5While the Tilapia is baking, make the peanut sauce. Mix all of the ingredients listed above. Vary ingredient amounts to your liking. Cool or set aside until the Tilapia is ready.
-
6Broil the fillets for a few minutes until golden.
-
7Serve the fillets on a plate and scoop the peanut sauce on the side.
