Ingredients
- 2 lb Tilapia fillets
- 1 Red onion
- 2 Jalapeños
- 2 Tomatoes
- 3 tbsp Niter kibbeh
- 1 tbsp Berbere
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tbsp Ginger
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1/4 cup Cilantro
Steps
- Cut the tilapia into 2-inch chunks and pat very dry. Season with salt and half the berbere.
- Sear in hot niter kibbeh 2 minutes per side until golden with crisp edges. Set aside — fish overcooks in a blink.
- Char the onion wedges and jalapeños 2 minutes; add the garlic, ginger, and remaining berbere for 1 minute.
- Add the tomato wedges and toss 2 minutes until just slumping. Return the fish for a 1-minute final toss.
- Finish with lemon juice and cilantro; serve on injera immediately.
