Fish fillets with Coconut Sauce

Morning Everyone!
Last night I made a delicious dish for dinner and my husband loved it!
This recipe is originary from my country, Dominican Republic.
You can buy almost any type of fish to do this recipe like tilapia, red snapper, grouper …. Etc. there is a big variety to choose from, I made mine with grouper, since my husband goes fishing once in a while when he have a chance, the fish was really fresh never frozen , but it’s ok if you only can get it from the grocery stores, you can find some really good and fresh fish there also, so here is my recipe I hope you guys like it.
