Tandoori Fish is a classic Indian fish preparation originating from North India, where fish fillets are marinated in a mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and an array of spices such as red chili, turmeric, and garam masala. The fish is then traditionally cooked in a tandoor—a cylindrical clay oven—that imparts a smoky flavor and tender texture.
This dish is commonly served as an appetizer or main course during lunch and dinner and pairs well with naan or rice. It is known for its high protein content derived from the fish and also contains significant selenium, an important trace mineral for human health.
Enjoyed widely across India, Tandoori Fish combines flavorful spices with a healthy source of animal protein and essential minerals.
