We have not had fish in so long, like years, so I thought it was time to throw it back into rotation once in a while. Brown butter and basil and unlikely combination...maybe? But does it work..heck ya!!
Brown butter goes good with just about anything. I could probably swim in it!! I love the crunchy breadcrumb coating, and the basil flavor really isn't too strong because it's dried basil. Another thing I love about this fish is that it's cooked in coconut oil. I love the flavor and smell of that stuff and it pairs so well with fish.
It's wonderful how just a few simple ingredients can make a wonderful and uncomplicated dish like this one. This is melt in your mouth good!
Brown Butter Tilapia with Basil Bread Crumbs
4 fresh tilapia filets
1 1/2 Tbsp. virgin coconut oil
salt/pepper
3 Tbsp. brown butter
1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 tsp. dried basil
Add 3 tablespoons butter to a small saucepan. Heat over medium high heat and continue cooking until butter starts to turn brown and smells fragrant and nutty. Remove from heat.
