Firecracker Tilapia

This recipe is from my momma.  It is very easy!   

Ingredients:

• 4 tilapia filets
• 1/2 cup of canned, diced tomatoes--drained. 
• 1/2 cup canned tomato sauce
• 4 Tablespoons of ketchup
• 4 teaspoons of brown sugar
• 4 teaspoons of cider vinegar
• 2 teaspoons of syrup
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder

 Instructions:

• Combine all of your ingredients (minus the fish) in a bowl to create your sauce.  

• Place your fish filets in the bottom of a separate bowl or container with a lid.  Pour the sauce over the fish. 
• Place the lid on the bowl and refrigerate/marinate for 30 minutes.  

                    

• Remove your filets from the sauce and place them on a greased baking pan. 

• Bake at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes, or until your fish is flaky.  
• Heat the remainder of the sauce on the stove. The sauce can then be spooned onto your cooked fish.  

I plated mine with some dirty rice. 

Enjoy!
