Ingredients (for two servings)

2 Mahi Mahi Fish fillets
1 Tbsp Olive oil
Ginger paste
Cilantro paste or chopped cilantro for ease (paste gives better flavor)
Sea salt
Red chili powder
Ajwain (also called bishop's weed or carrom seeds). Can be replaced with thyme. Has strong flavor, so you will need this 1/4 teaspoon.
Fresh or bottled lemon juice for after the fish is cooked.


Method

Marinate the fish in above seasonings. Keep it in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Cook the marinated fish for 25 minutes.
Drizzle some lemon juice on the top once cooked.

It has a strong flavor, so eat it with just plain jasmine rice or basmati rice or a healthier option of quinoa cooked in water and seasoned with little salt. Any low carbohydrate veggies can be added to the rice or quinoa for additional color and vitamins.
