I just tasted a seafood dish with aji amarillo sauce at a local restaurant. It’s a yellow hot pepper sauce that gives a sweet and hot pepper flavor to the dish. I wanted to make the dish at home and was delighted to find the sauce in a jar at the supermarket. So, I created this simple dish. It captures the flavors of Peru, without a long preparation time. If you can’t find aji amarillo ready-made, this recipe will work with hot paprika instead.
Helpful Hints:
– Cilantro is used in both recipes. Chop a little for the fish and leave the rest of the leaves for the rice.
– You can use any type of flaky white fish.
Countdown:
– Prepare ingredients.
– Make the rice and set aside.
– Make the cod recipe.
Shopping List:
To buy: 3/4 pound cod fillet, 1 bottle ground cumin, 1 jar aji amarillo, 1 small carton heavy cream, 1 package microwaveable brown rice, 1 container frozen peas, 1 bunch carrots, 1 bunch cilantro leaves.
Staples: canola oil, salt and black peppercorns.
