Coconut Crusted Basa
Ingredients
- Basa fillets (we use frozen package that includes 4 or 5)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- Coconut flour (depends on amount of fish, about 1/2 cup)
- 2-4 eggs
Instructions
- Let frozen fish thaw in the fridge overnight, or in a sink of cold water.
- Heat the coconut oil in a large pan.
- Whip eggs in a medium size bowl.
- Lightly dust a plate with coconut flour.
- One at a time, dip the basa fillets in the eggs and then in the coconut flour. Add more flour as needed, fish should be lightly dusted on each side.
- Place fillet in the hot pan, cook approximately 4 minutes on each side, until fish is no longer translucent.
*If you like coconut a lot, add a few tablespoons of shredded coconut to the fish before pan-frying.
*If you don't like coconut as much, mix a bit of almond flour in the coconut flour before dusting the fillets.
*If you want to add a bit of kick, add some cayenne pepper/paprika/chili powder to the coconut flour before dusting.
