Tandoori Tilapia

I started to make Indian food at home and I really like it.  All the different spices make for tons of layers of flavor.  This fish was excellent!  My family and I loved it.

Tandoori Tilapia

Serves 5

Ingredients

5 Tilapia filets

1/3 cup white wine vinegar

6-8 fresh garlic cloves, chopped

1 tbsp. fresh ginger, chopped

1 tbsp. ground coriander

1 tbsp. ground cumin

2 tbsp. olive oil

1/4 cup water

1 red bell pepper, sliced thinly

1/4 tsp. cayenne (more if you like it real spicy)

salt, to taste 

2 tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped

Directions

To a blender add all the ingredients except fish, peppers and cilantro.  Process until smooth.

Lay the fish in a baking pan and pour the marinade over the Tilapia.  Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours so the flavors meld together.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Uncover the baking pan and place most of the sliced peppers over the fish (reserve a few for garnish).  Bake for about 15 minutes or until fish is done.  Serve on a plate with the remaining peppers and cilantro for garnish.

Enjoy!
