Ingredients

• Fresh parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Lemon juice - 3 tablespoons
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons

• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, chopped cilantro, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2. Place the fish fillets in the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.
