Nigerian Grilled Tilapia
Sweet, savory and spicy.

We continue our Tropical journey in Africa, with a Nigerian Grilled Tilapia. When I was looking for recipes from countries in Africa that can be found between the 2 Tropics, I kept on seeing different variations on this recipe and they all looked absolutely delicious. I ended up adapting (slightly) a recipe from Jayne Rain for Oven Grilled Tilapia - that looked just too good to miss.
We were not planning on buying red tilapia - yet our usual store sold their last tilapia right in front of us. Rest assured, whichever one you find will come out great.
This meal pairs well with a Tropical Salad - recipe to come in the next 24 hours.
