Thai Coconut Catfish Recipe

Sharing is caring!

Thai Coconut Catfish

Adapted from a chicken recipe on the Thai Kitchen website

From Minnie: There are so many different types of fish which are extremely tasty, nutritious and healthy, that we are really spoiled for choices.

Health experts urge us to consume more fish, and recommend a minimum of two portions of fish a week, with one portion being a white non-oily species. With so many different types of fish from which to choose, and a great number of cooking methods with which to prepare fish, it is most definitely possible to add quite a few new delicious and healthy recipe ideas to your growing repertoire.  We really enjoy using this particular recipe for several types of fish!

Suggestion:  Serve fish and mixed vegetables with Red Chili Coconut Jasmine Rice and Thai Sweet Asparagus.  It was a lovely meal and we decided we could eat this very, very often!

*This recipe also works quite well with any type of firm white fish (cod, flounder, tilapia, sole, sea bass, whiting, etc)

DISCLAIMER:  Kelli was sent a few Thai Kitchen item to review, but Minnie is more of a Thai eater, so she got to try the things out.  No money exchanged hands and any opinions are our own.

This recipe looks great! We cook a lot with coconut milk, but have never tried seafood with it. I'll pass this along to my hubby.

Thanks!
