This is a healthy twist on an all-time favorite- fish sticks! You can use any kind of white fish- halibut, tilapia, cod, sole, or pollock. Buy wild caught if possible!

Serve on top of a taco salad or along side this Cleansing Sunflower Slaw.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb fresh white fish, bones and skin removed
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened
  • 2 tsps turmeric powder
  • 2 eggs, beaten

Instructions:

  1. In a large glass pyrex casserole dish, mix together lime juice, salt, cumin and chili powder. Marinate fish for 2-4 hours.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix shredded coconut and turmeric powder together.
  3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  4. Remove fish from marinade and slice into rectangular pieces (approximately 3 inches long and 1 inch wide).
  5. Toss the fish in the whisked egg and then coat with the shredded coconut and turmeric mixture.
  6. Place the fish on a greased baking sheet or a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes on each side.

Enjoy!
