Ingredients for
Baked Fish In Tahini Sauce

  • 1 whole 5 pound red snapper, cleaned and scaled
  • Juice of four limes for washing fish
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely crushed
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 cup pine nuts
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 recipe Tahini Sauce (see note for link to Taratoor B'Tahini)
  • 1 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

How to Make
Baked Fish In Tahini Sauce

  1. Wash the fish well with the lime, and rub (inside and out) with the garlic and salt. Bake on a greased baking tray at 350°F until cooked, approximately 30 minutes.
  2. In the meantime, sauté the pine nuts in the butter until golden brown. Drain and set aside.
  3. When the fish is cooked, cool, skin and debone. Reserve the head and tail for displaying on the serving platter, if desired.
  4. Arrange the deboned chunks of flesh in the shape of a fish on the serving platter. Place the head and tail at either end to complete the shape.
  5. Pour the Tahini sauce over the fish and sprinkle the pine nuts over the sauce.
  6. Garnish with the parsley and paprika.
  7. Serve immediately.

Notes

If the Tahini sauce gets too thick, add water to return it to a pouring consistency.
