PORTUGUESE VINEGAR MARINADE OR SAUCE (MOLHO ESCABECHE) FOR FISH
Entered for safe-keeping, as Portuguese cooking fascinates me, and this recipe promises some exciting left-overs. This can be used to marinate fish that has been fried or grilled: refrigerate for 2-3 days in the sauce, then serve. From Ana Patuleia Ortins' "Portuguese Homestyle Cooking." Of course, you can also pour over freshly cooked fish or serve it on the side. Edited 7/06/12 to add smoked paprika as an option.

Steps:
- Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Mix 2 tablespoons oil and half of minced garlic in small bowl. Brush garlic oil on both sides of fish. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and remaining garlic; sauté 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and next 6 ingredients. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 5 minutes to blend flavors. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Cover and keep warm.
- Grill fish just until opaque in center, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plates. Top with sauce and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh, firm fish fillets for best results.
- Marinate the fish for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, for maximum flavor.
- Use a light hand when coating the fish in flour, as too much flour will make the fish tough.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the fish, otherwise the fish will stick to the pan.
- Fry the fish in batches, so as not to overcrowd the pan and lower the oil temperature.
- Cook the fish until it is golden brown and flaky, and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
- Serve the fish immediately with your favorite sides, such as tartar sauce, coleslaw, or french fries.
Conclusion:
Fried fish marinated in garlic, vinegar, oregano, and cumin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. The marinade infuses the fish with flavor, while the frying gives it a crispy coating. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
