Ingredients
- 4-6 tilapia about 2 pounds, fillets
- 1-2 jalapeno pepper seeded and chopped
- 4 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons ginger from about a 2-inch piece that has been peeled, grated
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce low-sodium
- ⅓ cup white wine or fish stock or chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- ⅔ cup cilantro chopped
- green onions chopped for garnish
- cilantro extra, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Pat the tilapia fillets dry and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the fish in a glass or ceramic baking dish.
- Place the jalapenos, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, wine or stock, sesame oil and cilantro in a blender or food processor. Pulse or process until blended. I prefer this finely processed but you can really leave it as coarsely or finely chopped as you like. Pour the sauce over the fish. Rub the sauce into the fish lightly.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until the fish flakes easily and is cooked through (it's ok if it is slightly gelatinous still). Using a spatula, scoop the fish out of the pan and place on a plate or platter. Drizzle some of the sauce over the top and serve immediately.
