Steps
- 1
Cut a piece of aluminum foil big enough to wrap the fish. Coat it with 2 tablespoons olive oil and put the fish fillets on it.
- 2
Spread the lemon slices over the fillets then pour over the lemon juice and the rest of the olive oil. Add some salt.
- 3
Wrap the aluminum foil around the fillets and put it in an oven tray.
- 4
Cook the fish fillets, in a preheated oven for 10 min. Then turn them on the other side and let them cook for another 10 min.
- 5
Remove tray from oven and let it cool.
- 6
To prepare the tahini sauce, dissolve the tahini paste in 3/4 cup of water so it does not clot when adding the rest of the ingredients. Add the crushed garlic, lemon juice and salt. Mix well till you get a fluid homogenous sauce.
- 7
In a pan, heat the vegetable oil and fry the sliced onions until they become tender. Remove the pan from heat.
- 8
Cut the fish fillets into large pieces and put them in a serving dish. Pour the tahini sauce over the fish and top with the fried onions and roasted pine nuts. Serve at room temperature or cold with pita bread.

Note: For an easier Tagine recipe, you can replace the fish with 3 tuna cans. In this case, drain the tuna and transfer it into the serving dish. Pour the tahini sauce over and top with the fried onions and pine nuts.
