Escovitch Fish

Escovitch fish is a classic Jamaican dish made by seasoning, marinating, and frying fish with a peppery, vinegar-based dressing consisting of bell peppers, carrots, and onions. Fish such as red snapper, mullet, king fish, or any other firm-bodied fish can be used in the preparation of this dish.


It is traditionally prepared during the Easter festivities, and many believe that the dish tastes even better the next day.
