  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 4 (6-ounce) skinless halibut fillets
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice plus 4 lemon slices, divided

  6. Toss the lemon juice mixture with the serrano mixture until evenly coated.
  7. Serve each fillet with ¼ cup of the herb mixture, tahini salad, and flatbread.
