## Ingredients

- 1 kg fish, cleaned and butterflied or scored (any kind; I like sea bream or sea bass)
- 50 g butter
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 1 or 2 green chili peppers, chopped
- 1 head of garlic, chopped
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp cumin
- Lemon slices
- Potato slices in the same marinade (optional)

## Method

1. Cut lengthwise slits in the fish and place on parchment in a baking tray.
2. In a pan over medium heat melt the butter with the chili and garlic until slightly soft, add the spices and stir for a minute.
3. Coat the fish inside and out with this sauce, top with lemon slices and cover with foil. Marinating at least 2 hours gives a great result.
4. Bake at 200°C on the middle rack about 20 minutes, then remove the foil and brown the top, adding more butter if you like. Small fish can be done in the air fryer.
5. Serve with rice or tartar sauce.

## Notes

I added potato slices in the same marinade.
