When I first tried this dish, I loved the classic Moroccan flavors, but somehow it seemed as if I were tasting each one separately: chickpeas, fish, and heady spices, disparate notes that didn’t quite harmonize for me. Then I whipped up a batch of Cheater’s Aioli—jarred mayonnaise flavored with saffron and lime—folded It Into the pan juices, and a lovely melody was born.
