Make

  1. Heat oven to 425F / 218C degrees.
  2. Combine thyme (portion for fish), parsley, lemon juice, capers, mustard, and tahini.
  3. Place fish in a baking dish. Spread tahini mixture over top of fish. Bake, uncovered, for 12 to 15 minutes depending on thickness of fish.
  4. While fish cooks, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Toast pine nuts until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
  5. Return skillet to heat and add oil and then onions to heated oil. Saute until starting to soften, 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Add mushrooms and thyme (portion for mushrooms) and saute until mushrooms are tender, 3 to 4 minutes more.
  7. Stir in spinach and garlic. Cook until spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add pine nuts, remove from heat and season with some salt and pepper.
  8. Serve fish over mushrooms with lemon wedges on the side. The mustard / tahini turns into a natural sauce. Enjoy!
