#myhealthykitchen - No oil recipes .
Normally tawa frying is used to prepare Blackened fish. This is a healthier alternative to avoid oil usage. I used Indian spices in this recipe, you can also try Cajun seasoning or other Italian seasonings or the mix of other spices likes oregano, parsley, dill, thyme, and celery seeds. #fish
