Tikkas are small pieces of boneless meat or fish marinated in spices and later grilled or baked. Here is the recipe for all your entertaining needs during the holiday season. Fish tikkas will make the perfect appetizer that are light, flavorful, healthy and easy to prepare.
Tandoori fish tikka
These
tikkas are great eaten as they are. Serving it with mango salsa is
like gilding the lilly.
Serves:
4
- 1 pound boneless, skinless salmon fillet
Marinade:
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon cayenne
- 1 teaspoon Trader Joe’s curry powder
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon canola oil
- 1 tablespoon oil for basting
- bamboo or metal skewers
- Mango salsa homemade or store bought
Cut
fish into two inch pieces and set aside. Mix all the ingredients for
marinade and add fish to the marinade. Gently mix fish and marinade
together until all pieces are coated with the marinade. Cover and
transfer to the fridge and marinate for 4 – 24 hours.
If
you are using bamboo skewers, soak them in water at least for an
hour.
Preheat
oven to broiler.
Thread
marinated pieces onto metal or bamboo skewers. Line the edged baking
sheet with a metal rack. Place skewers on to the rack and broil for 5
- 7 minutes, depending on your oven. Baste them with oil.
Transfer
to a serving platter and serve with mango salsa.
