Recipe Introduction
You can add other seafood if you wish. We added clams and enjoyed this immensely. The palm oil adds color and a bit of flavor.
List of Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 Spanish onion, sliced
1 tomato, diced
1/2 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and julienned
1/2 green bell pepper, cored, seeded and julienned
1 pound dolphin fillet cut into chunks (mahi mahi)
1 teaspoon palm oil
3/4 cup coconut milk
20 medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
Salt, to taste
1 hot pepper (dedo de moca)
2 cups cooked rice
Recipe
In a nonreactive large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic, onions, tomatoes and red and green bell peppers. Saute 5 minutes until soft. Add the dolphin chunks and cook 6 minutes. Add palm oil, coconut milk, shrimp, salt and hot pepper; cook 6 minutes. If the fish is not quite cooked you can cover the pan during the last few minutes of cooking. Serve over rice. Makes 4 servings.
