I love the taste of the herbs and spices in this sauce recipe and use it on fried chicken, and eggplant cutlets made the same way. Ingredients:
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh coriander |
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley leaves |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne, to taste |
6 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus additional for frying the fish |
2 lbs skinless firm-fleshed white fish fillets, such as tilapia,catfish,cod or halibut,cut into 4 equal pieces |
all-purpose flour, seasoned with |
salt and pepper, for dredging the fish |
Directions:
1. In a food processor or blender purée the coriander, the parsley, the garlic, the lemon juice, the paprika, the cumin, the cayenne, 6 tablespoons of the oil, and salt and pepper to taste.
2. In a skillet heat 1 inch of the additional oil to 375°F.
3. on a deep-fat thermometer, dredge the fish in the flour, shaking off the excess, and in the oil fry it, turning it once, for 1-1/2 to 2 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked through.
4. Transfer the fish to paper towels to drain, divide it between 4 plates, and drizzle the sauce over it.
