Recipe Notes

Chermoula is a North African sauce, generally served on fish, made from garlic, oil, cumin, coriander, lemon juice, and salt. Some versions include saffron. There are a lot of variations depending on the country or region, and this recipe pulls from many of them and includes both herbs and the spiciness of red pepper flakes and mint.
