Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon minced flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 tablespoon minced cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika, preferably hot
1 pinch saffron threads, crushed
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 and 1/2 pounds fish fillets (4 fillets): fluke, black sea bass, hake
1 pound large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, in half-inch-thick slices
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and black pepper
1 red bell pepper, cored and slivered
1 pint (1 pound) cherry tomatoes, halved
Half-cup pitted Kalamata olives

Steps:

  • Combine garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, paprika and saffron in a dish big enough for the fish. Mix vinegar, lemon juice and tomato paste in a small bowl. Add to dish and mix. Place fillets in the dish, turning to coat them, cover and set aside to marinate 2 hours at room temperature, 3 hours if refrigerated.
  • Place potatoes in a saucepan, add water to cover, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. Drain.
  • Brush a baking dish that can go to the table and will hold the fish in a single layer with a little of the oil. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread potatoes in the dish, season with salt and pepper, and place fish fillets on top. Scatter peppers and tomatoes over fish. Add a little more salt and pepper. Spoon any excess marinade over fish, strew with olives, drizzle with remaining oil and bake about 30 minutes, until fish is just cooked through.

MOROCCAN FISH AND POTATOES



Moroccan Fish and Potatoes image

This recipe comes from a little old lady who lives in the old city name Irma Charles, fondly called Bubby Irma by the residents. She is a fantastic cook! I use flounder for this recipe (with a shorter cooking time), but it works with all fish.
