Ingredients
  

Cauliflower Rice:

  • 400 gram cauliflower rice
  • 3 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • 3 tablespoon coconut oil
  • ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ¼ teaspoon chili flakes

Fish with Coconut Lime Sauce:

  • 16 ounce cod filet
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoon fresh garlic minced
  • 1 medium lime juice and zest
  • 1 cup canned coconut milk
  • ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Gather and prep all of your ingredients.
  • Add coconut oil and garlic into a pan for the cauliflower rice over medium heat. Once oil is hot and garlic fragrant, add in the cauliflower rice, turmeric, basil, and chili flakes. Cook, stirring frequently, until moisture is removed. Set aside.
  • In a bowl, combine the coconut milk, turmeric, and some salt and pepper to taste.
  • Season the fish with salt and pepper. In a separate pan, heat coconut oil and garlic for the fish.
  • Once garlic is fragrant, add the fish into the pan and cook on one side. Add half of the lime juice into the pan.
  • Flip the fish, then pour the coconut and turmeric mixture over the fish. Put heat back onto the pan with your cauliflower rice to warm up if needed.
  • Add the basil, chili flakes, lime zest, and remaining juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow the fish to fully cook through, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Plate the cauliflower, then add the fish and drizzle the coconut milk curry over the top. Garnish with chopped cilantro and enjoy!
