Batter "Fried" Fish with Sweet & Sour Medley

 Jenni (Nevada) says:
This was fantastic. I substituted almond and coconut flour and used coconut oil for everything and honey instead of sugar and soy sauce instead of teriyaki since that's what I had on hand. After grilling the tilapia filets, I also threw in the pan more coconut oil, chopped jalapenos, chopped green onion and sliced grape tomatoes, then the veggie medley and let it heat up again. Threw that on the fish, added more salt, and went to heaven!
