Boulfaf de Poisson is a delightful Moroccan seafood dish featuring marinated fish skewers grilled to perfection, infused with aromatic spices and served with a zesty sauce. This dish is perfect for seafood lovers looking for a taste of Moroccan cuisine without dairy.

Ingredients

• White fish fillets (like cod or haddock) - 300 grams
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Ground cumin - 1 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - ½ teaspoon
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Skewers - 4 (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes)

Steps

1. Cut the fish fillets into bite-sized cubes and place them in a bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the olive oil, chopped parsley, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to create a marinade.
3. Pour the marinade over the fish cubes and gently toss to coat them evenly. Cover and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
4. Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
5. Thread the marinated fish cubes onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.
6. Grill the skewers for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
7. Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
