Coconut Tilapia with Apricot Dipping Sauce

-We just used some frozen Tilapia since I usually only buy meats/seafood that are on sale. It was great, and easy! Fish is so good for dinner, just the right amount of food! I served it with a salad and it was perfect!

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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
