Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add the chopped red onion and cook about 3 minutes until it starts to turn golden, stirring often.
2. Add the diced tomatoes, chopped garlic, coriander, sweet paprika, cumin, cayenne if using, a small pinch of salt, pepper, capers and golden raisins. Bring to a boil, then reduce to medium-low and simmer for about 15 minutes.
3. Heat the oven to 400°F.
4. Pat the fish dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
5. Spread half of the cooked tomato sauce in the bottom of a 9½ x 13 inch baking dish. Lay the fish on top, add the lemon juice and lemon zest, then cover with the remaining sauce.
6. Bake at 400°F for 15 to 18 minutes, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Garnish with parsley or mint before serving.
