INGREDIENTS
4 tilapia fillets (about 4–6 ounces each)
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon ground Mexican oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon lime zest
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, roughly minced + extra freshly chopped for garnish
1 jalapeno, thinly sliced
1 red chili pepper, thinly sliced
1 lime, halved and thinly sliced
Mango salsa to serve
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a large baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix together chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, ground Mexican oregano, ground cumin, salt, pepper, lime zest, and cilantro until completely combined.
Pat tilapia fillets dry with a paper towel. Generously coat both sides of each fillet with the spice mix. Place on a prepared baking sheet. Top as desired with half of the jalapeno, and red chili pepper slices. Add a couple of lime slices to each fillet.
Bake for 10-15 minutes until tilapia is cooked through (middle is opaque and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F).
Remove pan from heat and let rest for a couple of minutes. Garnish tilapia with remaining jalapeno, red chili pepper, and lime slices. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve with mango salsa and enjoy!
