SALMON WITH CHERMOULA SAUCE AND COUSCOUS
What better way to use up cilantro and parsley in the fridge, than making a spiced and flavorful herbaceous sauce! This Moroccan sauce gets paired with earthy spices like cumin and coriander, making it an easy go-to coating and marinade for many proteins. In this recipe, it's pulsed in a food processor and gets spooned over salmon filets. This chermoula also calls for adding juice of lemon and the zest, but you can try it with preserved lemons for a nice relish.

Steps:
- Make the chermoula: Combine the cilantro, 1/4 cup parsley leaves, the garlic, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspoon coriander and the lemon zest and juice in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. While the machine is running, slowly drizzle in 1/4 cup olive oil and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, heat a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and the zucchini and cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, 1 minute. Add the harissa, 1 1/4 cups water and a big pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous, then cover, remove from the heat and wait 5 minutes; fluff with a fork. Stir in the 2 tablespoons chopped parsley; season with salt.
- Season the salmon with the remaining 1 teaspoon each cumin and coriander and a few pinches each of salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Divide among plates and top with the chermoula. Serve with the couscous and lemon wedges.

FISH MARINADE (CHERMOULA)
This is an easy marinade to throw together. You can marinate any fish you'd like with this marinade, but I prefer whitefish. You only need to marinate your fish for a short amount of time - an hour or two is plenty.

SPICY AUTHENTIC MOROCCAN SALMON - A TASTE OF CASABLANCA!
When I got married at the age of 21, I could barely make toast, let alone a WHOLE meal! My sister always told me 'but it's so easy!' and I obviously didn't believe her. One frantic evening, when I've procrastinated all day about what to make for dinner, I call my sister for advice. This is when she told me the 'secret recipe' that she learned from my grandmother who was born and raised in Casablanca, whom learned this recipe from HER grandmother. My husband loved it that night, and I make it on a weekly basis for Shabbat. We've had guests who don't even like fish who went crazy about this! You won't regret it.. Serve with rice, Mediterranean salads, humus and pita! Be'teavon! Just a few notes.. I wrote the serving size as 6, but when we have guests, almost no one eats a whole piece of salmon, I've probably served about 9 people with this. All I know is that I always have leftovers, and I've had some hungry guys over! This recipe can be done with any fish, just note that the cooking time is different. I've made this with Tuna and Sole, and it came out great! *Chilli Peppers can be VERY spicy! Use your instincts. Cut it open, smell it, and depending on your reaction is how I would add. For example, if I feel my eyes watering and burning, I take out the seeds. We like spicy, but not burn-your-mouth-so-bad-you-can't-taste-it. Also, wash your hands VERY well afterwards. I almost always forget and end up burning my eyes and face. Use gloves perhaps. Please be careful and enjoy!
