Steps:
- Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or cast-iron skillet to 350 degrees F.
- Score the fish on both sides with a knife. Sprinkle inside and out with the Seafood Spice Rub. Coat in batter if using (see Cook's Note).
- Fry the fish until the skin, or batter, is crispy, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Serve with Escovitch Dressing.
- In a food processor, pulse together the pimento seeds, adobo, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, salt, black pepper and white pepper. Add the olive oil and process until the mixture has a deep red color, about 45 seconds.
- Combine the vinegar and 3 cups water in a saucepan. Add the sugar, pimento seeds and 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Add the carrots, onions, peppers and thyme. Remove the pan from the heat and let the vegetables cook slightly in the hot liquid (they should still be firm).
JAMAICAN ESCOVITCH FRIED RED SNAPPER
When we travelled from Kingston to Ocho Rios, I remember grabbing food from street merchants. We stuck our hands out of the car to buy bags of guinep, peppered shrimp, mangoes and coconut water. Guinep is a peculiar fruit. I snapped the leathery skin open to reveal a pulpy flesh reminiscent of lychee with notes of a sweet and sour. The fruit was mostly seeded, so we devoured a bag quickly. It was the perfect snack for travelling cross country. Roads were narrow, filled with potholes, and the drivers drove fearlessly around mountainsides. We ventured through Fern Gully, a magical winding road covered in a thick fern that was once a river. The starking sun rays bounced everywhere as it peaked through the greenery. When we reached the Ochie, we made a stop at Dunn's River Fall, the most popular waterfall in Jamaica. I would grab the hands of my brother and sister, while the freshwater gushed over our faces as we climbed the slippery waterfall rocks. Memories of Jamaica will always make it my piece of paradise.

- Saute for about 5 minutes, you want the vegetables to keep their body and crunch.
- Add the rice vinegar, and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Place onions and pepper sauce over the fish.
- Serve with Jamaican Rice and Peas.

Steps:
- Whisk together the flour, marjoram, parsley, paprika, ginger, pepper and salt in a shallow bowl. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season 2 of the red snapper fillets all over with salt, then dredge them in the seasoned flour. Shake off any excess flour and place in the skillet. Cook until golden brown on one side, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook on the other side until cooked through, an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Wipe out the pan and repeat with the remaining 2 fillets and oil.
- Sandwich Build: Spread a thin layer of Scotch Bonnet Aioli on the bottom and top of your toasted roll. Add the filet of snapper and finish with some Pickled Peppers. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. This dish can be served warm or cold. Eat this beast of a sandwich like it may be your last.
- Place the peppers in a small skillet and char them on all sides over medium-high heat, about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the peppers continue to soften in the pan. When the peppers are cool enough to handle, wearing gloves, scrape out the seeds and then mince and scrape the peppers into a paste-like consistency.
- Mix together the minced peppers, mayonnaise, garlic and lemon juice in a small bowl.
- Combine the vinegar, sugar, honey, tarragon, thyme, peppercorns and salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and add the bell peppers and onion. Let cool to room temperature.
RED SNAPPER ESCOVICHE
Steps:
- For the fish: Wash the fish with the lemon juice and salt. Pat the fish dry, then season the fish with the seasoning salt, garlic and onion granules, paprika and black pepper. Fry the fish in a large skillet with the vegetable oil, flipping once. Place the fish on paper towels. Pour out the oil from the skillet, saving a small amount.
- For the escoviche sauce: Add the onions, carrots, thyme, green and red peppers and Scotch bonnet. Saute the vegetables until tender. Add the vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, paprika, seasoning salt, granulated garlic, granulated onion and black pepper. Slowly add 1/2 cup water to the vegetables to make a sauce. Return the fish to the skillet and simmer for a few minutes.
SNAPPER ESCOVITCH
A Caribbean favorite, this light, tender and flaky fish is made with whole snapper, but you can also use fillets for ease. This recipe has a mellow spice to let the flavor of the fish shine through, but it's open to adaptation: Feel free to add a little more hot pepper or allspice, if you like, for more intensity. If you're in a hurry or low on spices, you can substitute Old Bay, jerk or Cajun seasoning blends for the spice mix in Step 1. Then, turn it into a sandwich (see Tip), paired with sweet plantain fries, or eat it as a light meal on its own.

- Add vinegar, and stir to combine all the ingredients. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes, until the vegetables soften but still retain bite, and spoon over fish. (Leave the allspice berries or pickling spice in the topping. Simply eat around them.)
