PESCADO A LA VERACRUZANA is, as I found out whilst searching the interwebs, a white fish in the style of Veracruz. Apparently the area’s cuisine is a mix of Caribbean, Spanish Cuban.
I loved fish before I went vegan, but sometimes I still crave that whitefish flavor. So, of course I had to make a similar dish because it looked F-ING #delicious and I knew I could #veganize it. I’m calling it skinless @gardein fishless fillets in a Veracruz-ish sauce. YES, its true. You don’t have to eat the fried part of the fishless fillet. YOU CAN TAKE IT OFF. DONT FREAK OUT!!
.
I made some corn off the cob elote to go along with the fish.

Ingredients:
3 fishless fillets
1/4 white onion chopped
1/2 tomato chopped
1 clove garlic
Salt/pepper
1/2 tsp each Oregano, chives, chili powder @badiaspices
Lime juice
A few leaves of spinach if you don’t have cilantro like me lol
1 tbsp mayo @followyourheart
1 tbsp sour cream @tofuttibrands
Olive oil
1 chipotle pepper chopped from can with Adobe sauce and 1 tsp adobe sauce from can
1/4 cup @violife feta
Recipe:
Preheat oven to pkg directions. When at temp, put fish in oven safe dish, set timer 15 min and flip then cook 8 more min. While that’s happening, cook drained corn in pan. In a small bowl, mix mayo, salt/pepper, chives, lime juice, chili powder, most of the feta, some of spinach. Pour hot corn over mayo mix and stir until combined. Top with more cheese and spinach. In a cast iron skillet or non stick pan, add oil, onion and garlic. Cook a few min then add tomatoes, chipotle and sauce , salt/pepper, oregano. When fish done, take out, take off breading and add to pan and coat with sauce mixture. Cover to steam a couple more min. You can take fish out of oven earlier prob if you want and stem in skillet longer. Once done, drizzle a little more oil on top and serve with corn.
