Instructions
-
Prepare the Fish: Rinse the tilapia thoroughly and pat dry. Make diagonal cuts on each side of the fish to allow the marinade to penetrate.
-
Make the Marinade: In a bowl, combine the vegetable oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, and lemon juice.
-
Marinate the Fish: Rub the marinade all over the tilapia, making sure to get into the cuts. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
-
Grill the Fish: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the tilapia for about 7-10 minutes on each side or until the fish is cooked through and has a nice char.
-
Serve: Serve the grilled tilapia hot with the banku and additional sides like pepper sauce or vegetables.
