- Transfer to food processor. Add parsley leaves and next six ingredients to processor. Using on/off turns, process until coarse paste forms.
- With machine running, gradually add ½ cup of the olive oil to complete the Charmoula. Use half of the Charmoula to rub over the fish and set aside to marinate.
