Chop the cilantro, parsley, garlic, cumin, paprika, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper almost into a puree.
Coat the fish fillets with chermoula and rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Bloom the couscous with hot water and prepare it for serving.
Heat a pan over medium-high heat and place the fish in it with its sauce.
Cook the fish for 4 minutes on the first side and 3 minutes on the second side.
Warm the remaining chermoula in the pan for 1 minute and spoon it over the fish.
Serve chermoula fish with couscous and yogurt.
💡 Tip: Do not overdo the lemon juice; during a long marinade, too much acid firms the surface of the fish as if it were cooked.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve chermoula fish as a light dinner plate with couscous, arugula, and optional yogurt cucumber.
