For the Fish Fillet Recipe
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp sumac
1 ½ tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dry dill weed
1 tsp turmeric
1 large yellow onion (or sweet onion), chopped
Extra virgin olive oil
8 garlic cloves, chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped (or 1 green bell pepper if you prefer mild)
5 medium ripe tomatoes, diced or chopped
3 tbsp tomato paste
1 lime, juice of
½ cup water
salt and pepper
2 lb cod fillet cut into large 4 to 6-ounce pieces
½ cup chopped fresh parsley for garnish
1 tbsp chopped fresh mint leaves for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS
Make the Lebanese rice first, according to this recipe (optional)
In a small bowl, combine the coriander, sumac, cumin, dill and turmeric to make the spice mix. Set aside until needed
In a large, deep skillet (with a cover) heat 2 tablespoon olive oil. Saute the onions for 2 minutes then add the garlic and jalapeno. Cook on medium-high, stirring regularly, until fragrant and golden in color, about 2 more minutes.
Now add the tomatoes and only ½ of the spice mix (keeping the remainder of the spice mix for later use). Add the tomato paste, lime juice, water, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Bring to a high simmer, then turn the heat down to medium-low. Cover and cook the tomato mixture for 10 more minutes; stir occasionally.
Meanwhile, season the fish fillets lightly with salt and pepper and coat on both sides with the remaining ½ of the spice mix.
Gently add the fish fillets to the tomato mixture, nestling the fish pieces nicely in it. Cook on medium-high briefly, then reduce the heat to medium. Cover and cook for another 10-15 minutes until the fish is cooked through (it should be flaky).
Remove from heat and top with the fresh parsley and mint leaves. Serve immediately in bowls with Lebanese rice or your favorite crusty bread.
NOTES

You can use 1 green bell pepper in place for the jalapeno for a milder-tasting dish. You can also use a bit of both peppers, if you like.
