Coconut Talapia

I have had the cooking bug lately. I really enjoy cooking, and love trying new recipes (thank goodness for allrecipes.com). Here is a recipe that I came across that was super simple to make, and oh so yummy.


Coconut Tilapia

with Apricot

Dipping Sauce

PREP TIME 20 Min
COOK TIME 10 Min
READY IN 30 Min

SERVES 4

INGREDIENTS
1 cup flaked coconut, finely chopped
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 (4 ounce) carton egg substitute
1/2 cup canola oil

Apricot Dipping Sauce
1/2 cup apricot jam
2 teaspoons brown mustard
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish


DIRECTIONS
Toss together the coconut, flour and Creole seasoning in a bowl. In a separate bowl, toss the tilapia with the cornstarch, and shake off the excess. Pour the egg substitute into a separate bowl, and dip the fillets in the egg. Press fillets in the coconut mixture coating all sides.
Heat canola oil in a frying pan to a temperature of about 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fry fillets one or two at a time on both sides until golden brown. Remove to drain on a paper towel. Prepare the apricot dipping sauce by stirring together the jam, mustard, and horseradish in a small bowl. Serve the tilapia accompanied by the dipping sauce.
