Coconut Lime Shrimp Sauce over Pollock Fillet Recipe
Delicate pollack fillet covered in coconut milk and lime juice shrimp sauce over a bed of seasoned rice has been my newest family’s favorite dinner. I am a lucky mama because my oldest requests cod or pollack or any flaky white fish for supper and she loves along with the rest of the family.
Another reason I love this recipe is that it is a Disney copycat. I am excited about our family’s upcoming Disney trip in the spring. While researching all the amazing restaurants and menus, I realized we would never have enough time to eat everything at Disney. So I found Disney copycat recipes to make at home, so then I can have the best of both worlds. Plus, I have heard you can ask for recipes at the Disney restaurants, so I hope to make more copycat ones when we return. Wish me luck.
Cost to make the recipe.
I calculated this wonderful recipe to cost around $14.13 for the entire recipe or about $3.51 per serving size. This is a great full recipe if you add a vegetable side dish that shouldn’t add too much extra cost to the recipe.
