@cookwithbizzy: Jamaican Escovitch Fish 🇯🇲🐟🌶️ One of the dishes I enjoyed when I visited Jamaica was escovitch fish, so I decided to recreate my own version at home. Traditionally, snapper is a popular choice, but I used tilapia for mine. And that spicy, tangy escovitch dressing over freshly fried fish? So good! 🔥 For the fish: * Whole tilapia * Lime (for cleaning) * Salt * Bouillon powder * Paprika * Lemon pepper * Habanero * Cajun seasoning * Garlic powder * Corn flour (light coating) * Oil for frying * Garlic and scallions For the escovitch dressing: * Bell peppers * Carrots * Onion * Scotch bonnet * Cloves * Vinegar * Orange juice * Olive oil Method: Score and season the fish generously, then lightly coat with corn flour and fry until golden and cooked through. For the dressing, heat a little olive oil, add the cloves and chopped vegetables, then stir in vinegar and orange juice for a balance of tanginess and sweetness. Spoon the escovitch dressing over the fish and serve. I paired mine with fried plantain and avocado. 🥑 Jamaicans, how did I do with my version? 😂🇯🇲 #escovitchfish #jamaicanfood #Recipe #friedfish #fishrecipes

Keeping it real :
Most of the times we only use black pepper and salt on our fish to do Esco beach. We don’t use that much seasoning on our you see the thing is sometimes when you guys do that you mess with the origination of what we do just like we’re not going to make Nigerian food and say this is how we make it. No, we don’t do that type of stuff.
