Oven Grilled Knife Fish (Eja Osan)

I bought this fish on one of my trip to Epe Fish Market; That is one trip I would love to take again. I bought this fish without knowing the name; I later found out it is one of Nigerian's highly priced seafood, and its fish known as Knife Fish in English, in Yoruba as Eja Osan or Dansarki in Hausa or in Igbo its called Azu Asa. It is a highly regarded and expensive delicacy and often listed on drowry/bride price list. This fish is one tasty piece of fish trust me.
