Notes from the chef:

You don't actually need to bread the tilapia.  It's time consuming and adds calories.  If you don't feel like going through the process, just season the fish and throw it in the skillet with some butter.

Roll the crushed cashews/peanuts in the left over butter from frying the tilapia to add some extra flavor to them.  Do this before adding the coconut milk to the skillet.
