This is a great way to make tilapia. It is full of flavor and the chickpeas give this dish a little bit of crunch. Definitely a crowd-pleaser.

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).

2. Place fish fillets on a lined baking tray and set aside.

3. Heat oil in a medium-sized skillet.

4. Sauté onions and garlic until golden.

5. Add all remaining ingredients except water and sauté lightly.

6. Add water, bring to a boil, and simmer for two minutes while stirring.

7. Pour sauce over prepared fish. Top with chickpeas.

8. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.

Tips: Fish spice is made with paprika, turmeric, cumin, ground coriander, salt, and garlic powder. If you don’t have any, simply spice, to taste, with any or all of the aforementioned spices.
