Peixe a Brasileirinho delivers a delightful combination of savory, crispy, and slightly tangy flavors. The freshness of the fish is paramount, complemented by simple seasonings that enhance its natural taste.
The dish emphasizes the natural flavor of the fish. Typically, the fish is seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and lime or lemon juice. The crispy texture comes from being lightly dredged in flour or cornstarch before frying. The addition of herbs like parsley or cilantro can also contribute a fresh, aromatic note.

Fish Selection
Choose a firm, white-fleshed fish like whiting, cod, or snapper. Freshness is key to a good flavor.
Drying the Fish
Pat the fish fillets completely dry with paper towels before seasoning and coating. This helps the coating adhere better and creates a crispier exterior.
Oil Temperature
Maintain the oil temperature at around 350-375°F (175-190°C) for optimal frying. Too low, and the fish will be greasy; too high, and it will burn.
Don't overcrowd the pan
Fry the fish in batches to prevent the oil temperature from dropping too much.
