Pescado frito estilo de Yojoa

Originating from the Lago de Yojoa region, fried Yojoa fish is a traditional dish. The fish is seasoned with salt and spices and it's left to marinate overnight. The next day, it's deep-fried and traditionally garnished with pickled red cabbage, pickled onions, and lime slices, while deep-fried plantains, also known as tajaditos, make for an excellent side dish.

The Yojoa fish has a slightly sweet flavor, which distinguishes it from other types of fried fish, and the marination process ensures that the flesh becomes delicious, flaky, and easily pulled off the bones.
