cilantro

🥗Healthier: parsley

💰Cheaper: green onions

Parsley adds freshness, while green onions are more economical.

Clean and gut the fish, then pat dry with paper towels.

In a bowl, mix yogurt, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, cumin, coriander, turmeric, red chili powder, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.

Coat the fish thoroughly with the marinade, ensuring it's well covered inside and out.

Cover the marinated fish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to develop.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Place the marinated fish on the grill, cooking for 5-7 minutes per side until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

During the last few minutes of grilling, add sliced onions and tomatoes to the grill for a side.

Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Garnish with fresh cilantro and green chili slices before serving.

Serve hot with lemon wedges and your choice of flatbread or rice.
