Method

  1. 1 Marinate the fish with salt, lemon juice, and olive oil for 20 minutes.

  3. 3 Sauté minced garlic and fresh chilies for 3 minutes, then add red chili powder and coriander powder for extra flavor.
  4. 4 Mix the sesame sauce with lemon juice and cold water, pour into the pan with the garlic and chili, and stir for 5 minutes until the sauce is smooth and thick.
  5. 5 Pour the sauce over the fish, sprinkle with roasted pine nuts and parsley, bake for another 5 minutes, then serve hot.

    Replace step 2 and the final step 5: spray oil on the fish, bake in a hot air oven at 215 degrees for 13 minutes, flip after 7 minutes, then coat with sauce and bake for another 3 minutes; reduce to about 9 minutes, the fish will be drier but you'll have to divide it into batches if it's whole.
