How to make Luxury Fish Tagine
Preparation
Warm up your tagine or Dutch oven before you start cooking.
Cooking
Begin with the onions and add the peppers when the onions become soft.
Add spices, tomatoes, and garlic. Cover the peppers with the spices and add the tomatoes and garlic.
Add chickpeas and water. Simmer for 10 minutes, then taste the sauce.
Add cilantro and frozen fish directly to the tagine. Do not defrost the fish to retain its juices.
Serving
Serve with couscous or bread to keep the Moroccan theme.
Tips & Tricks
If cilantro tastes like soap to you, substitute it with parsley.
Serve with briny olives and pickles for a traditional Moroccan touch.
Use sourdough bread to soak up the flavorful tagine sauce.
Consider serving a simple salad after the meal as a palate cleanser.
