Ingredients

  • 1 pound firm white fish such as mahi mahi, cod, or tilapia
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 teaspoon coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika omit for nightshade-free
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • zest of half a lemon
  • 2 tablespoons parsley minced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425ºF. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and grease it with a bit of avocado oil to prevent the fish from sticking. Set aside.
  • Combine the salt, coriander, paprika, and cumin in a small bowl. Season fish with the seasoning and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Combine the butter and garlic and melt together (either in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave for a few seconds or on the stovetop in a small pan over medium heat). Add the lemon juice and zest. Pour over fish on the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish just flakes when tested with a fork. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
