Baked Tilapia with Mint Mayo Marinade


Baked Tilapia with Mint Mayo Marinade

This is a simple baked fish with lemon and herb blend as seasoning along with a spread of mayo.Mayonnaise used in this recipe is flavored with minced garlic and mint.The fish I have used here is  Tilapia and is a perfect fish for baking.I tried the same recipe with trout and catfish. But this one is my favorite.If you do not like lemon mint flavor you can try other herbs like parsley or thyme.

Ingredients
Tilapia fillets-2
Lemon Pepper seasoning- 1/3 tsp
( it is a combination of lemon,pepper, celery seeds and garlic)
Chilly powder- 1/3 tsp
Salt to taste
All Purpose flour-1/3 cup
(to coat the fish)

Fresh mint leaves chopped- 2 tsp
Garlic paste- 2 clove
Mayonnaise - 2 tsp
lemon zest- a pinch



Wash and clean tilapia fillets. Wipe off the extra moisture. Drizzle a few drops of oil on the fish and rub it on top of the fish.Mix lemon pepper seasoning, chilly powder and salt and rub on the fish. Allow the fish to marinate for five minutes.In a plate spread flour and coat both sides of fish with flour.

Pre heat oven to 350 degree. Grease baking dish with a few drops of oil. Place the marinated fish leaving a little space between the two. Meanwhile whisk mayonnaise, garlic, lemon zest and chopped mint. Spread a thin layer of this mixture on top of the fish. Bake for 15 minutes till the crust changes color and the fish flakes with a fork and is opaque.

Try this..
Hope you will all enjoy

Easy Persimmon Custard Pudding

  Easy Persimmon Custard Pudding  Custard is an old fashioned dessert made with milk, sugar, and eggs. It is the quickest dessert you can ever make, and it is delicious and comforting. Fruit custard is my favorite when it comes to easy no-fuss dessert. Fruit flavored custard is the perfect last-minute dessert idea for entertaining. The basic custard recipe is simple, and it is versatile- you can use it in a million ways, like pastry cream, cake filling, and tarts. But the simplest way to serve the luscious creamy custard is chilled with chopped fruits or jelly. Persimmon pudding has a delectable fruity flavor and a creamy gel like consistency. The pudding is a great time-saver, and you can make it ahead of time. Your guests will be impressed. I have already shared a baked Easy Persimmon Pudding . Persimmon is in season during the fall and winter months, so there is no better time to try this recipe. Persimmon is exotic looking, with a deep orange color. When ripe, it has a dis...
