Coconut Crusted Cod With Mango Salsa Aip Friendly Recipes

COCONUT-CRUSTED FISH FILLETS WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Prepare the mango salsa: Stir together the mango, onion, lime juice, red pepper, vinegar, sugar, vegetable oil, cilantro and curry powder in a bowl. Season salsa with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
• Place the shredded coconut in a food processor and pulse very briefly, until they are a bit more finely shredded. Add 1/3 cup flour, the cumin, curry powder, salt and pepper and pulse to mix. Transfer mixture to a shallow plate.
• In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water. Place the remaining 1/3 cup flour on a second plate.
• Dredge the fillets first in the plain flour (shaking off excess), then in the egg mixture (letting excess drip off), and finally in the coconut mixture, coating both sides completely.
• Heat the olive oil and the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the fillets until they are browned on both sides and cooked through on the inside, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Spoon a bit of the mango salsa on each fillet and serve.

COCONUT CRUSTED COD WITH MANGO SALSA (AIP-FRIENDLY!)

Steps:

• Combine all of the mango salsa ingredients and set aside. 2. Wash, dry, and debone the cod fillets. 3. Combine the coconut flour, ginger powder and salt on a plate or shallow bowl. Place the coconut milk in another shallow bowl, as well as the shredded coconut. Dip the cod strips into the coconut milk, then the coconut flour mixture, back into the coconut milk, and finally into the shredded coconut, paying special attention to creating a thick breading. 4. Heat the coconut oil in the bottom of a skillet on high heat. When it is hot, cook the cod strips for five minutes a side depending on thickness of the fish, or until the top and bottom are nice and browned and the fish is cooked throughout. Once the cod strips are in the pan, try not to fuss with them too much – because there is no egg in the breading, they are a little delicate. 5. Serve with mango salsa.
