Ingredients
  • For the tahini sauce (about 1 1/4 cups) and the rice:
  • 1 to 2 cloves garlic (if you really like the garlic the way I do, add another clove)
  • 1 bunch flat-leaf parsley
  • 3/4 cup tahini
  • 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup to 3/4 water (the water is extremely variable, depending on the brand of tahini and is used to thin the sauce out to a thick creamy consistency)
  • 1 pinch Salt, or to taste
  • 1 cup basmati rice
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch rings
  • 1/2 cup pine nuts
  • For the fish and the assembly:
  • 2 pounds fish filet (firm, white-fleshed fish like halibut or hake recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pinch Salt and pepper, for seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 limes, quartered
  • 1/2 bunch cilantro or parsley, for optional garnish
