Mix the garlic, lemon juice, half the olive oil, cumin, sweet paprika, turmeric, chopped cilantro, and salt.
Coat the fish fillets with half the chermoula sauce and rest for 15 minutes.
Grate the tomatoes and thinly slice the red peppers and onion.
Cook the onion and red peppers in the remaining olive oil for 7 minutes, until softened.
Add the tomatoes and remaining chermoula sauce, cover, and simmer for 14 minutes.
Place the fish fillets on the sauce, add the green olives, and cook over low heat for 9 minutes.
Transfer the fish with its sauce without breaking it and serve with fresh cilantro on top.
💡 Tip: Use haddock or sea bass fillets; very thin fish breaks apart in the sauce, while thicker fillets cook with more control.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve the tagine hot as a main dish with optional couscous, lemon wedges, and parsley green salad.
