Ingredients

Scale
  • 1½ lbs white fish fillets (cod, halibut, or tilapia)
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup almond or coconut flour
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • Olive oil spray

  • ¼ red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 1 small jalapeño, minced (for heat)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Set up three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and the third combining shredded coconut, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and sea salt.
  3. Pat the fish fillets dry, then coat them in flour, dip in egg wash, and finally press into the coconut mixture until well-coated.
