👨🍳 조리법
- 1
Score the cleaned fish on both sides with a few diagonal cuts. Marinate the fish with lemon juice, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
💡 전문가 팁: Scoring the fish helps the marinade penetrate and ensures even cooking. - 2
While the fish marinates, prepare the plantains. Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat until shimmering (around 350°F or 175°C).
💡 전문가 팁: The oil should be hot enough to sizzle when a plantain slice is added. - 3
Carefully add the sliced ripe plantains to the hot oil in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and caramelized. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season lightly with salt.
💡 전문가 팁: Fry in batches to maintain oil temperature and achieve even browning. - 4
While the plantains are frying, place the all-purpose flour in a shallow dish. Dredge the marinated fish in the flour, shaking off any excess.
💡 전문가 팁: A light coating of flour helps create a crispy exterior. - 5
Carefully place the floured fish into the hot oil (you may need to do this in batches). Fry for about 5-7 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fish, until golden brown and cooked through. The flesh should flake easily with a fork.
💡 전문가 팁: Ensure the fish is cooked through by checking the thickest part. - 6
Remove the fried fish from the oil and drain on paper towels. Season with a little more salt if desired.
💡 전문가 팁: Draining excess oil is crucial for a non-greasy result. - 7
Serve the Pescado Frito immediately with the Plátanos Maduros. Garnish with fresh parsley and optional sliced onions, and serve with extra lemon wedges.
💡 전문가 팁: This dish is best enjoyed fresh.
💡 전문가 팁
