Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2.5 tablespoons vinegar
  • 1.5 teaspoons garlic (about 2 cloves)
  • 1.5 teaspoons ginger (about 1 inch)
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder (quantity based on level of spice desired)
  • 1.5 teaspoons coriander powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons cumin powder
  • 2 pounds catfish or tilapia, cubed
  • 1/4 cup cilantro chopped (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Blend 2 tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, garlic, ginger, red chili powder, salt, coriander, and cumin in a mini-food processor, blender or by hand until it is a thick paste.
  • Place the cubed fish in a shallow baking dish and brush with the mixture to coat evenly. Marinate in refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
  • Preheat the oven broiler.
  • Place the baking dish with marinated fish under the broiler on the oven's center rack for 10 minutes. Turn the fish and continue cooking until the fish flakes easily, about 7 more minutes. Serve immediately or to seal in the flavor, see Step 5 (recommended).
  • Add 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet and sauté until the fish is darker brown and hot. Top with optional cilantro if you have it available. Enjoy!
