Talapia with Ginger-Orange Sauce

I always thought that fish could only be prepared breaded and fried. I mean, that is what you do when you catch a few walleyes at the cabin, right?

This fish dish pulls in a variety of flavors and delivers some heat. We enjoyed this on our deck on a beautiful summer evening.
