  • About

Creole-style dishes are usually stewed or braised and feature a tomato-based sauce. The kingfish’s hearty flesh makes it ideal for this type of cooking.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 4 (6-ounce each) kingfish steaks

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large, deep frying pan. Add the fish and brown on one side, about 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and brown on the other side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  2. Place the onion slices in the frying pan and sauté until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, and then reduce the heat to low.
