• Cut the fish filets in equal size pieces (so they cook evenly). Lay the fish into an 8 x 8 baking dish, and squeeze half a lime over the fish. Add garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and one tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper and turn the fish to evenly coat each piece. Cover and refrigerate to marinade for at least 15 minutes.
