Prepare the Chermoula: In a food processor or blender, combine chopped cilantro, parsley, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, cumin, paprika, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Process until a coarse paste forms. You may need to add a tablespoon or two of water if it's too thick.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Don't over-process; a slightly coarse texture is desirable. - 2
Score the fish: Make 2-3 diagonal slits on each side of the whole fish. This helps the marinade penetrate and ensures even cooking.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Be careful not to cut too deep into the bone. - 3
Marinate the fish: Generously rub the Chermoula paste all over the fish, both inside the cavity and in the slits. Let it marinate for at least 15-20 minutes at room temperature, or longer in the refrigerator.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Ensure the marinade gets into the slits. - 4
Cook the fish: You can either grill or bake the fish. \n\n**Grilling:** Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place fish on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes per side, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. \n\n**Baking:** Preheat oven to 200ยฐC (400ยฐF). Place fish on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through.
๐ก ์ ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ํ: Cooking time will vary depending on the size and thickness of the fish. - 5
Serve the fish hot, garnished with lemon slices. It pairs well with couscous, a fresh salad, or roasted vegetables.
