💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
2
Pat the fish dry well with paper towels and cut diagonal slashes on both sides.
Knife
💡The slashes let the seasoning in and the heat reach the thick flesh near the back, so the fish cooks evenly.
3
Mix the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, cilantro, salt, black pepper, paprika, cumin and turmeric.
4
Place the onion in the baking pan, drizzle the olive oil and salt over it and toss. Place the fish on top.

💡The fish is done when the flesh near the backbone is white and flakes easily with a fork; a white, opaque eye is another sign.
💡Give it room in the pan: crowded vegetables steam instead of browning.
7
Serve immediately with pita bread and lemon wedges.
