TRINBAGO FRIED FISH

Ingredients

  • 4 – 6 fish slices, eg king fish or carite, washed and cleaned
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp green seasoning
  • 3-4 blades of chadon beni, chopped
  • 2 – 3 pimento peppers, seeded and diced
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Few dashes pepper sauce
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • Oil for frying

Directions

  1. Season fish with lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper, green seasoning, pimento peppers, pepper sauce, and chadon beni. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least half hour. (Note: if marinating overnight, leave out lime and add just about half hour before frying as the acid can breakdown the fish)
  2. Remove from pan and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve as desired.
  3. Evenly dredge the fish in flour shaking off the excess. Add to the hot oil in batches, cooking on each side about 3 – 4 minutes each until fish flakes and is golden brown.
  4. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat.
