Steps:
- In a large pan with cover, heat 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil (I used Private Reserve) over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking.
- Add minced garlic and cook very briefly, tossing regularly, until fragrant. Add tomato paste, diced tomato, and bell peppers. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes over medium heat, tossing frequently.
- Now, add chickpeas, water, cilantro, and sliced garlic. Season with kosher salt and pepper. Stir in 1/2 tsp Ras El Hanout spice mixture. Raise heat, if needed, and bring to a boil. Lower heat. Cover part-way and let simmer for about 20 minutes. (Check occasionally and add a little water if needed.)
- Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, combine remaining Ras El Hanout with cumin and paprika. Season the fish with kosher salt and pepper and the spice mixture on both sides. Add a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Work the fish to make sure it's well coated with the spices and the olive oil.
- When ready, add the season fish to the pan, and make sure to nestle the fish pieces into the saucy chickpea and tomato mixture. Ladle a bit of the sauce on top of the fish. Add lemon juice and lemon slices. Cook another 10 to 15 minutes over medium-low until the fish is fully cooked and flaky. Garnish with more fresh cilantro.
- Serve immediately with your favorite crusty bread, grain, or rice.

Steps:
- Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a pot, add the chopped garlic and fry on medium heat until the garlic turns golden. Add the tomato paste, sugar, salt and pepper. Stir. Add the red pepper and the spicy green chili pepper. If you want it to be very spicy, add the seeds. Without the seeds, it will only have a slight kick. Stir and fry for 2 more minutes. Add the whole garlic cloves and the water. Stir to scrape up the delicious caramelized flavor from the bottom of the pot. Cover and cook on medium heat for 15 minutes. In a mixing bowl, add ⅓ cup olive oil, turmeric and paprika. Mix. Dip the fish fillets into the mixture and coat on all sides. Add the fish to the pot, then pour the rest of the mixture into the pot. Squeeze the juice of ½ lemon, then place the slices of the rest of the lemon on top of the fish. Sprinkle with parsley or cilantro. Cover and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro and serve hot with a scoop of the sauce.
