Huachinango a la Veracruzana is a traditional dish originating from Veracruz. It consists of a whole red snapper that is cooked in a spicy tomato sauce. The sauce is most commonly made with a combination of tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, onions, bell peppers, olives, capers, chili peppers, and various spices.

The fish is baked with the sauce until tender, and it is then served with rice, steamed vegetables, or roasted potatoes on the side.
