A delightful tilapia recipe with a tangy citrus and ginger glaze, perfect for a flavorful and healthy meal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, ginger, garlic, scallions, and orange zest.
Use a whisk to ensure the marinade ingredients are well combined for even flavor distribution.
Place the tilapia fillets in the marinade and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Marinating the fish in the refrigerator allows the flavors to infuse deeply.
Preheat the grill on high for 10 minutes.
Ensure the grill is clean and well-oiled to prevent the fish from sticking.
Grill the tilapia fillets for 2-3 minutes per side, depending on thickness.
Use a spatula to carefully flip the fish to avoid breaking it.
In a saucepan, combine the reserved marinade with the orange juice and simmer until reduced by two-thirds.
Stir the glaze occasionally to prevent it from burning.
Serve the grilled tilapia with the citrus ginger glaze drizzled on top.
Garnish with additional chopped scallions or orange slices for a vibrant presentation.
