Ingredients

• Canola oil spray
• Four 6-ounce pieces tilapia fillet
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
• 1/2 cup light reduced-fat coconut milk

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with canola oil spray. Sprinkle the fish with the salt and place it in the pan.
