Cómo preparar Achiote Tilapia Super Simple
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons achiote paste, 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Place tilapia fillets (about 1 pound) in a shallow baking dish.
- Pour the achiote marinade over the fish, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat your oven's broiler to high. Let it heat for 3-5 minutes.
- Remove the fish from the marinade and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Broil the tilapia for 5-7 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fillets and your broiler's intensity. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Serve the tilapia immediately. Garnish with lime wedges, avocado slices, and fresh cilantro. Enjoy in warm corn tortillas for delicious fish tacos, or serve over saffron rice for a complete meal.
