Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then panko and coconut. Cook, stirring often, until golden, 2-3 min. Remove from heat, then transfer coconut-panko mixture to a plate. Set aside to cool. Carefully wipe the pan clean.
Add 1 cup (2 cups) water and half the garlic salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.Add rice to the boiling water, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. (NOTE: Reduce heat to low if water is boiling over.)Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.Pat tilapia dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.Add to the prepared baking sheet. Spread mayo over tops of tilapia. Top with coconut-panko mixture, pressing down gently to adhere. Bake in the top of the oven until cooked through, 9-12 min.**
Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1-inch pieces.Separate bok choy leaves, then cut into 1-inch pieces. (TIP: Rinse bok choy leaves to wash away any hidden dirt!)Thinly slice green onion.
Reheat the same pan (from step 1) over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers. Cook, stirring often, until beginning to soften, 2-3 min. Add bok choy, then season with remaining garlic salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 3-4 min.Transfer veggies to a plate, then cover to keep warm.
Warm plum sauce in a small microwavable bowl, or in a small pan over low heat. (TIP: Skip this step if you don't want to warm plum sauce!)Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in half the green onions. Divide rice, veggies and tilapia between plates. Drizzle plum sauce and sprinkle remaining green onions over top.
