Coconut And Vegetable Baked Tilapia Rsc Recipes

FOILED AGAIN! BAKED TILAPIA WITH ROASTED VEGETABLES #RSC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F; line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil and cut off an additional 4 squares of foil to make fish packets.
• Melt butter in olive oil over low heat; brush foil squares with just a small amount of this mixture (the remainder will be used for the sauce) - alternatively, you can spray the foil with cooking spray.
• Season both sides of the fish with salt and pepper; lay one fillet on each foil square and grate the lemon zest over each.
• Close up packets and arrange on a prepared baking sheet; bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place cauliflower florets, onion, and tomatoes in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil; arrange, in a single layer, on the other prepared baking sheet.
• Season vegetables with salt and pepper and roast until cauliflower just begins to brown on the edges and tomatoes soften and collapse, about 15 minutes.
• Once fish and vegetables are done, place almonds in remaining olive oil/butter mixture and heat just until almonds are golden, only about 1 minute - be careful, they burn easily (even if they do brown, they are still good).
• Open packets and plate fish with cauliflower mix along side; top with sauce and garnish with fresh parsley.

BAKED TILAPIA WITH COCONUT-CILANTRO SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with canola oil spray. Sprinkle the fish with the salt and place it in the pan.
• Combine the coconut milk, cilantro, ginger, garam masala, garlic and jalapeno in a blender and pulse until fairly smooth. Pour the mixture over the fish. Bake until the fish is just opaque in the center, about 15 minutes. Garnish with more cilantro and serve with the rice.

COCONUT CRUSTED TILAPIA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees
• Place foil on a baking sheet and spray with non-stick spray.
• Combine coconut, bread crumbs, and crackers in a bowl. Put egg whites in another bowl.
• Dip the tilapia in the egg, then in the coconut crumb mixture. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until tilapia is done. (Check tilapia at about 15 minutes so it won't burn.)

BUTTER-BAKED TILAPIA AND COCONUT RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add rice and cook and stir until toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add coconut milk, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, season tilapia fillets with lemon-pepper seasoning on both sides. Place in a glass pan. Break the stick of butter in half and place directly on top of the fillets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until butter is fully melted and bubbling, 5 to 7 minutes. Ladle some of the butter back over the fish and reduce the oven temperature to 330 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish looks just about done, 3 to 5 minutes more. Raise the temperature back to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and bake until the edges start to get golden brown. Serve with rice.
