Really good. The flavors went really well together. I served with coconut rice and red beans.

I was so excited to try this recipe - lots of my favorite ingredients. :-) I am happy to say that it turned out very good! I made a couple of changes, based on availability/preference.. such as not wanting to waste an egg on just one tilapia filet (just cooking for me/one), so I made a mayo/lime mixture... not too pleased with myself there, but it kind of worked as the 'adhesive' for the coconut. I also used brown rice flour, since I'm allergic to wheat flour. I found unsweetned grated coconut, which I LOVE! I started the filets off in the pan using a lot less oil, but then moved them to the oven for 20 minutes at 350F. The sauce was also DEEEEELICIOUS. I only had fig jam on hand, and substituted it for the apricot jam. I will make this as directed, next time - as I'm sure it'll be even better. Thank you for this great, easy, yummy recipe!

This was pretty good. I baked instead of fried and next time I will drizzle a little oil on the top. The fish was moist but the coconut was a little dry.

"Restaurant quality!" said my husband- This has become one of his favorite meals. Olive oil makes this taste less heavy and broiling also works well.. Didn't have brown mustard so I used Dijon Mustard and the sauce was still fabulous.

We loved this dish...I'd give it 10 stars if I could. My husband is not the biggest fish fan but fixed like this he would eat it every week without complaining. Thanks for the great recipe!

It turned out just like the picture, and the taste was very appealing. I did end up baking it instead, 425 degrees for 10-12 minutes, and was pleased with the result.

This really is an excellent dish. I baked the tilapia at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes i believe and turned it twice to crisp both sides. it turned out wonderful. the apricot dipping sauce is excellent!

This was FABULOUS!!! I did use whole wheat flour and sweetened coconut. Other reviews have said not to use the sweetened coconut but if you are using prepackaged creole seasoning (which is loaded with salt) you need the sweetened coconut to offset the saltiness and it turned out perfectly, IMHO. I did use the canola oil for frying (medium high heat) and it turned out VERY light, crispy, and moist. My filets were just over 3 oz each (5 per pound) and I doubled the breading recipe and it made exactly enough. I was afraid that this would be like most dishes that are fried, you have to watch them like a hawk to keep it from burning. But not so, just as one was finishing, I'd finished breading the next and was ready to drop it in when I removed the other so it was very smooth, taking around 40 minutes to do 10 filets. This dish was very easy to do, it only took about 2 minutes per side to finish these filets perfectly (I'd remove them to a warm oven to keep while frying the next batch--fried 2 filets at the time). I did add more mustard and horseradish to the dipping sauce as we like it spicy! My family took one bite and said, "You have our permission to make this every single week!!" And I just may!!

good stuff! so, i battered coated created a bit of a mess, even with tongs. (but its all good, what a dish!) lightly pan fried for a second to get a nice little browness, and then baked for the remainder. for the sauce however, i didn't have all the ingredients on hand, so i whipped up a orange marmalade, cayanne, and red pepper flake concoction. i loved it, boyfriend loved it and baby woke up hungry due to the smell! thanx for a good one!

This dish was awesome! My husband said it tasted like it came from a restaurant. I omitted the creole seasoning and just used paprika. I also did not use horseradish and I used honey mustard instead of brown. I also used whole wheat flour. Delicious!!

I love this recipe. My husband requests it. I found that you can reduce the oil significantly and it still browns. Also, to be careful when frying the fish because the coconut browns very quickly and will burn if you aren't careful. I like to cover my pan while it's frying to help the fish cook more quickly.

This is sooooooo good! I do not care for fish, but my kids and husband do, so I make it once in a while. Even the picky eater in my family (me!) ate an entire fillet! The sauce was really tasty and went really well with the coconut/spice coating. Thanks for the recipe! I'm sure it will be made again.
