Preheat oven to 400° F. In a skillet over medium heat, roast cumin seeds, coriander seeds, pepper flakes and caraway seeds for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat; grind spices in a spice grinder or use a mortar and pestle.

Bake for 20-30 minutes until filets are cooked through. Serve with parsley garnish.
