Grilled Fish A La Marocaine
This picante, pungent Moroccan marinade can be used for any fish suitable
for grilling or broiling and can also be used to marinate fish before
baking. Its good with firm, white fleshed fish. Directions: Pound
together the garlic, salt, cilantro, paprika, cumin and cayenne. Stir in
the lemon juice and olive oil. Marinate fish steaks or whole fish in this
for several hours, turning from time to time.
Grill the fish for 4 minutes for each 1/2 inch thickness, turning halfway
through. Baste with the marinade and serve at once, garnished with
additional cilantro. Chill leftovers and serve cold the next day.
