3/4 c. Dry bread crumbs (I used plain, but to each his own)
Cooking spray

Here is how you make Coconut Walnut crusted Tilapia w/Orange marmalade dipping sauce.:

1. Preheat oven to 3752. Pour bread crumbs, and walnuts into blender or food processor and chop into a fine powder. (You can add the coconut flakes in also if you like, or keep them whole, and add them after grinding the walnuts and bread crumbs.3. Rinse fillets, and gently pat to leave them just damp.4. After pouring the breading mixture into a shallow pan, lay the fillets down on the breading, gently patting to make sure the coating sticks, turn filet over and repeat on the other side.5. Place a baking rack onto a cookie sheet, and spray the rack with cooking spray.6. After breading fillets, lay them out on the rack, trying not to let them overlap.7. Bake in the oven at 375 for about 30 minutes, or until fillets flake with a fork.OPTIONAL - I like to turn the oven off and switch to broiler for about the last 5 minutes or so, to get a really good crisp on the coconut and breading.SAUCE:Pour Marmalade and honey into a medium saucepan and heat over medium heat, adding mustard and cayanne pepper to taste, normally takes at least 1 tbsp. of mustard.Serving Size: Makes 7 ServingsNumber of Servings: 7Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SUPERDAVE42709.
