Tips:
- To ensure the fish cooks evenly, make sure the fillets are of uniform thickness. If necessary, use a sharp knife to slice them to an even thickness.
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatoes and herbs for the salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can substitute dried herbs, but use only half the amount.
- If you like a spicier salsa, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice for a brighter flavor.
- For a more flavorful fish, marinate it in the lemon juice and herbs for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- To prevent the fish from sticking to the pan, make sure the pan is hot before adding the fish. You can also use a non-stick pan or spray the pan with cooking spray.
- Serve the fish immediately with the salsa and your favorite sides.

This sea bass with Moroccan salsa is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is cooked to perfection and the salsa is flavorful and refreshing. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
