FRIED SNAPPER WITH AVOCADO

Steps:

• Squeeze the lemon juice both inside and outside the fish, and sprinkle with spice seasoning. Place the fish in a shallow dish, cover and set aside in a cool place to marinate for a few hours.
• Lift the marinated fish out of the dish and dust thoroughly with the flour shaking off any excess.
• Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the fish and fry gently for about 10 minutes on each side.
• Meanwhile cut the avocados in half, remove the pits and cut in half again. Peel away the skin and cut into thin strips.
• When the fish are cooked through, and skin is crisp and brown, transfer them to a warm serving dish. Add the avocado and corn slices . Garnish with lime slices and serve immediately.

PESCADO FRITO (FRIED RED SNAPPER)

Steps:

• Prepare the adobo: Combine all the adobo ingredients and grind them together in a large pilón or mortar and pestle, or simply mix them together in a small bowl.
• Prepare the fish: Make three shallow crosswise cuts on both sides of the surface of the fish skin, then place it in a deep container with a lid or a large resealable bag. Pour adobo over, rubbing it into the skin, head and cavity. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or 2 to 3 hours in the fridge. If marinating longer, let the fish come to room temperature 30 minutes before frying.
• In a wide, heavy-bottomed pot large enough to submerge your fish, pour in enough oil to reach a depth of at least 2 inches. Heat over high until oil is simmering and reaches 350 degrees on a candy thermometer.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set aside.
• Once the oil comes to temperature, pick the marinated fish up by the tail, shake off excess marinade, and lower it head-first into simmering oil. Use a pair of tongs to gently nudge the fish to prevent it from sticking to the pot. It'll be very active at first, so have a splatter shield handy, if you've got one.
• Using a heat-safe ladle, baste any unsubmerged fish with hot oil repeatedly, ensuring fish cooks evenly. Fry until it turns golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes, watching carefully and removing immediately if it starts to get dark.
• Using an extra-long fish spatula, or a set of heatproof tongs and a heatproof spatula, carefully lift the fish out of the oil and transfer it to the lined baking sheet.
• Let rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Garnish with lime wedges, hot sauce and cilantro.
