Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and spray a baking dish with non-stick spray. Place fish in a single layer in baking dish and pat dry with paper towel before sprinkling both sides with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together tahini garlic sauce adding one tablespoon at a time of warm water until you've reached a nice, thin consistency ideal for drizzling. Drizzle sauce on top of the fish then bake in the oven until flakey with a fork, about 18-20 minutes.
While fish is baking, toast pine nuts in a dry pan on the stove or in the oven for 5-6 minutes. Garnish fish with toasted pine nuts and parsley to serve.
