Chipotle Honey Glazed Tilapia
Chipotle peppers have been one of my favorite spicy ingredients to experiment with this year. This chipotle honey glaze really makes this fish stand out.

Ingredients-
6 tilapia filets
1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce (more if you like spice)

Lemon wedges
Directions:
- Put chipotle pepper, honey, scallions, 2 tablespoons of oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of pepper in a food processor. Pulse until it is a smooth mixture.
