This is a GREAT main dish! When I saw Tilapia was on sale this week I immediately got on Pinterest to find a new recipe. I came across this recipe for Ginger and Cilantro Baked Tilapia on featured on the Kitchn blog. It was very easy to make with few ingredients, most of which I had on hand already; and it came together really quickly. This healthy dish is very DELICIOUS!
3 large tilapia fillets (about 1.5 pounds)
2 T soy sauce
1 t sesame oil
3 cloves garlic
1/3 c chopped cilantro
1 medium jalapeno chopped
1/4 c water
1 T grated ginger
chopped scallions for garnish
salt and pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Dry fish fillets off with a paper towel and salt / pepper both sides. Place fillets in glass baking dish. Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, cilantro, jalapeno, water and ginger in a small food processor and mix until everything is combined pretty well. If you have not chopped ingredients very fine before hand just make sure everything is chopped relatively small. Pour mixture over fish fillets, making sure to gently rub ingredients into top of fillets. Bake for 8-10 minutes until fish flakes and is cooked thru. Serve fish over brown rice or by itself. I served this wonderful catch with roasted asparagus and baked sweet potatoes.
