SIZZLING ORANGE AND GINGER TILAPIA FILLETS
Note: You can also use fish like striped bass, swordfish and halibut
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 6 minutes
Serves: 4 people
2 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon ginger, peeled and minced
Juice of 1 orange
1 tablespoon orange marmalade
5 cloves garlic, minced
4 tilapia fillets, 6 oz each
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ tablespoon light soy sauce
Combine the sugar, ginger, orange juice and marmalade in a blender and puree until smooth. Pour into a shallow casserole or baking dish and lay tilapia fillets in the mixture and marinate for about 20 minutes.
Drain the fish. Reserve the marinade. Heat a large non stick skillet with the oil; about 1 minute. Add tilapia fillets and let cook for about 2 minutes or until fish turns a little brown on the edge. Turn the fish on another side and cook for 1 minute.
Pour off reserved marinade into the skillet and turn the heat to medium. Add soy and let the sauce sizzle and thicken in another 1 ½ minutes. Serve with mashed potato or steamed rice.
