  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 ½ pounds firm white fish fillets (such as cod or halibut)
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 large onion, finely chopped
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
– 1 bell pepper, sliced (red or yellow)
– 1 can (14 ounces) diced tomatoes, drained
– 1 cup green olives, pitted and sliced
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– 1 teaspoon ground coriander
– ½ teaspoon paprika
– ½ teaspoon turmeric
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish
– Lemon wedges for serving


Instructions

Creating this amazing Moroccan Fish Tagine is straightforward, and following these easy steps will guide you through the process:

1. Prep the Fish: Cut the fish fillets into large chunks and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. Sauté the Aromatics: Heat the olive oil in a large tagine or skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they are soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Incorporate the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
3. Add Vegetables and Spices: Stir in the bell pepper, diced tomatoes, olives, and spices (cumin, coriander, paprika, and turmeric). Cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the vegetables to soften.
4. Cook the Fish: Carefully nestle the fish pieces into the vegetable mix. Cover with a lid and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
5. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the tagine from the heat. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.

By following these simple steps, you’ll create a mesmerizing dish that resonates with warmth and flavor, ensuring a delightful dining experience!
