From Spain's paella-inspired Dory Fish dish to the zesty Peruvian ceviche with tuna cubes, these recipes will take your taste buds on a delightful adventure.

 

1. Spanish-Inspired Dory Fish Paella:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup Dory Fish Fillet (cut into chunks)
- 1 cup Arborio rice
- 1 onion (finely chopped)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 red bell pepper (sliced)
- 1 tomato (diced)
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp saffron threads (soaked in 2 tbsp warm water)
- 3 cups seafood broth
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 1/4 cup frozen peas
- Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- Lemon wedges (for serving)
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. In a large paella pan or skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onions and garlic until translucent.
  2. Add the Dory chunks to the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to turn opaque.
  3. Stir in the Arborio rice, paprika, and saffron-infused water. Mix well to coat the rice with the flavorful spices.
  4. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed.
  5. Add the diced tomatoes and red bell pepper, then gradually pour in the seafood broth. Simmer for about 15 minutes or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the broth.
  6. Sprinkle the frozen peas over the paella and let them cook for a couple of minutes.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

    - 1 cup tuna cubes

    - Tortilla chips (for serving)
    Instructions:

    2. In another bowl, mix the sliced red onion, jalapeno, cherry tomatoes, cilantro, and mint.
    3. Gently fold in the marinated tuna and avocado.
    4. Season the ceviche with salt and pepper to taste.
