Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, sliced
4 bell peppers (red, yellow, orange & green) sliced
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 tsp coriander seeds, lightly crushed
1/4 tsp chilli pepper/cayenne (optional)
1 tomato, skinned and diced
1 head of garlic, finely diced
1-2 tbsp harissa
1 small can of chickpeas (approximately 1 cup)
1 cup of water
1 tsp bouillon powder
1 bunch of cilantro, washed, dried and roughly chopped
4 frozen cod fillet (or any firm white fish.)
A pinch of freshly ground pepper
salt (only if needed)

Steps:

Heat the tagine. Set the tagine on a low heat until warm; once the tagine is warm, increase the heat to a medium-high. If you're not using a tagine pot, skip the warm-up on low and heat your pot at medium-high.
Sauté onions & peppers. Coat the tagine with a generous amount of olive oil (about 2 tbsp or more). Add in the onions, sauté until translucence, then add the bell peppers. Cover the tagine and cook for 3 minutes.
Add spices, tomatoes, garlic & harissa. Once the bell peppers have begun to soften, add in the spices and stir to coat the peppers and bloom the flavours. Add the tomatoes and garlic. Cover the tagine and simmer for 3-4 minutes ⏤ if the tomatoes are really dry, add 2 tbsp of water from your water cup.
Toss in the chickpeas, bouillon powder, & water. Open the lid, add the chickpeas and bouillon powder and give everything a good stir. Pour the water over the mixture and cover the tagine for 10 minutes.
Time for cilantro & fish. Remove the lid and taste the sauce; you may wish to adjust the salt at this point. I don't usually add any salt to the dish since the bouillon powder is pretty salty already, but it's a good time to check. Stir in the cilantro, then place the fish on top of the sauce. Cover the tagine, and simmer for 7 minutes.
Braise, Simmer & Cover. Now the fish has been cooking for 7 minutes and is becoming soft. Scoop some of the sauce on top of the fish and move the chickpeas to the side so the fish can be submerged into the sauce. Cover and continue cooking for 4 minutes
Serve and enjoy.

MOROCCAN FISH TAGINE

Moroccan Fish Tagine image

This delicious healthy dish common to North Africa, particularly Morocco, is one of my favorites when entertaining guests. The wonderful spices blended with fresh vegetables and fish is a crowd pleaser. The fish is marinated in a chermoula sauce to soak up all the wonderful spices prior to cooking. This dish is prepared in a traditional method in a ceramic tagine, but can be prepared in a heavy lidded pot. This dish as it cooks emits some of the most wonderful smells throughout the house. Serve with couscous or rice and crusty bread to mop up all the wonderful sauce!

½ cup olive oil
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
½ lemon, juiced
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground paprika
½ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground saffron
1 ½ pounds cod fillets, cut into bite-sized pieces

Place all chermoula ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine. If the marinade is thick and paste-like, thin its consistency with a little more oil or lemon juice or a tablespoon or two of water.
Add the olive oil to the base of a large tagine or a deep skillet. Add the sliced onion, covering as much of the tagine as possible. This serves as a bed for the remaining ingredients.
Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup water to the tagine, cover and place over medium-low to medium heat. (Use a diffuser beneath the tagine if cooking over a heat source other than gas.)
