Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 lb Salmon or Steelhead trout
  • 1 1/2 tsp Red chilly powder
  • 1 tsp Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Mix the red chilly powder, fresh lime juice, salt, pepper, turmeric powder and garlic powder together.
  • Wash the fish pieces and dry them with a paper towel. Apply the masala(spice rub) mixture into the fish.
  • Line a baking tray with aluminium foil. Place the fish on the foil and bake it for 30-35 mins at 425F.
  • If you want a nice crispy crust, broil it during the last 5 minutes.
  • Make sure you keep an eye on the fish while you broil it because it can easily burn the fish.
  • NOTE : 1)I usually make this in my toaster oven. Each oven or toaster has different capacity so please watch the fish while baking to make sure that it doesn`t get burnt.
  • You can substitute vinegar or Lemon juice with Lime juice.
  • You can use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder.
