- Drizzle the fish with lime juice, sprinkle with salt, and refrigerate for 1 hour. Heat the butter and oil in a skillet over moderate heat and saute the garlic until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes.

Dredge the fish fillets in the flour mixture, shake off the excess, and saute in the butter and oil mixture until golden brown on both sides and cooked through. Transfer the fish to a serving platter. Add the reserved garlic, lime juice, and parsley to the pan and stir to loosen the brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Spoon the sauce over the fish and serve immediately. Serves 4 to 6.
GIANT PRAWNS AL MOJO DE AJO WITH TWO SAUCES
Steps:
- In a large heavy skillet, preferably cast iron, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook very slowly, stirring frequently, until the garlic has turned golden, about 3 or 4 minutes. Be very careful not to let the garlic scorch or burn. Transfer the mixture to a shallow ceramic baking dish and let cool. Add the prawns and the chile to the garlicky oil, toss to coat them evenly, and refrigerate overnight, covered. Make the sauces below and, when ready to serve, preheat a grill or broiler to medium heat. Grill the prawns for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, then transfer to a warm platter. Scatter the salt and lime juice over them and serve immediately, accompanied by the Avocado Mayonnaise and the Ancho Chile Mayonnaise.

- Sazona el pescado con sal, pimienta y jugo de limón. Deja de lado mientras preparas el resto de los ingredientes.
- Calienta el aceite a fuego lento en una sartén grande. Una vez caliente, fríe las rodajas de ajo hasta que estén doradas. Asegúrate de retirarlos rápidamente, si los dejas más tiempo quedarán con un sabor amargo. Este paso lleva unos segundos, así que ten mucho cuidado.
- Si usas la harina, espolvorea los filetes con ella, muy ligeramente. Ahora, ponga el fuego a tempertura media en la sartén donde cocinaste el ajo. Una vez caliente, agrega el pescado y cocina por ambos lados. El tiempo de cocción dependerá del grosor del pescado. Será alrededor de 2-3 minutos por cada lado para los filetes de aproximadamente 1/3 de pulgada de grosor, y alrededor de 5-7 minutos para filetes más gruesos. No retire el pescado hasta que todos los lados estén dorados y cocinados.
- Retíralo de la sartén y colócalo en una rejilla para enfriar con una toalla de papel debajo para absorber el exceso de grasa. Para servir, decora con el perejil picado y las rodajas de ajo doradas. (Y si agregas un poco de mantequilla, ¡Huy, que delicia!)

- Season fish with salt, pepper and lime juice. Set aside while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
- Heat oil over low heat in a large frying pan. Once hot, fry the garlic slices until they are golden. Make sure to remove promptly once they are lightly golden, if you leave them longer they will get a bitter taste. This step takes a few seconds, so be very careful.
- If using the flour, dust the fillets with the flour, very lightly. Now, turn the heat to medium high on the frying pan where you cooked the garlic. Once hot, add the fish and cook on both sides. The cooking time will depend on the fish’s thickness. It will be about 2-3 minutes
- per side for those fillets about 1/3 inch thick, and about 5-7 minutes for thicker fillets. Do not turn the fish until every side is golden and cooked.
