Ingredients
- 2 pounds tilapia fillets
- 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 10 chiles de árbol
- 3 California chiles (or guajillo as a substitute)
- 6 garlic cloves, peeled
- 1 white onion, peeled and halved
- 4–5 lemons, juiced
- ½ to 1 cup mayonnaise (adjust for desired creaminess)
-
SPG seasoning
- Salt to taste (for the sauce)
- Optional: oil for griddle
Directions
- Preheat your griddle to medium-high heat. Place the halved onion and garlic cloves cut-side down onto the griddle. Cover and let them begin to char.
- Once the onion and garlic are softened and browning, add the chiles de árbol and California chiles. Toast the chiles just until softened and lightly burnt — this happens quickly.
- Transfer the charred onion, garlic, and chiles to a blender. Add lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and the mayonnaise. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Season both sides of the tilapia fillets and shrimp with the SPG seasoning.
- Generously rub the blended chile-mayo sauce over the seasoned fish and shrimp.
- Lightly oil the griddle if needed. Cook the tilapia and shrimp over medium-high heat until golden brown and fully cooked — about 3–4 minutes per side for the fish, and 2–3 minutes per side for the shrimp.
- Serve hot with white rice and a fresh salad.
