Fried Triggerfish

Want to know more about triggerfish recipes? Here are some of my best recipes. Before I share my recipes with you, you need to first understand what triggerfish is. Triggerfish are small-sized species of fish mostly found in tropical areas near coral reefs. They are thin, light fillets with a trifling flavor ideal for frying, broiling or baking. If you cook them properly, through healthy cooking tools, you can end up with a wonderfully delicious fish. You can also preserve your cooked triggerfish with pressure canning. I would recommend medium-sized 21.5qt All American pressure canner 921 which is good enough to can 4-5kg of triggerfish in one go.

Triggerfish Recipe 1: Fried

Ingredients include:

  • 6 triggerfish fillets
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon table salt
  • And 4 cups of vegetable oil.

Take a dish and crack eggs into it, use pepper and salt to season them and then use a wire whisk to mix them. Ensure the flour is in another separate dish. Cut triggerfish fillets into tiny pieces (2-inch square pieces). Dip each piece in the dish with eggs and then in that with the flour. Repeat the process to get an extra-thick coating. In the deep skillet, heat 4 cups of vegetable oil until the oil temperatures reach 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Add a few pieces of triggerfish at a time and cook them for 10 minutes. Periodically turn the pieces to ensure they are evenly cooked. Finally, remove the triggerfish pieces using a skimmer and put them on a plate. You must have enthusiasm for various recipes.

Ingredients include

  • 6 triggerfish fillets
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup lemon or lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • And 1/2 teaspoon table salt.

Preheat the broiler. Then use olive oil to moisten the triggerfish and broiler pan with a light coating, and then put the triggerfish in the pan. Sprinkle lime or lemon juice over it and add salt and pepper to taste. Then place the pan in an oven to broil the fillets for 2 minutes. If the triggerfish looks dry, turn and moisten it with extra lemon juice. Put the fillets back in the oven and broil them for an additional two minutes. To avoid overcooking, watch the triggerfish closely. When the fillets become flaky and opaque, the dish is now ready. Take the fish out of the oven and serve while still hot.

Triggerfish Recipe 3: Bake

Ingredients include

  • 6 triggerfish fillets
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup lemon or lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • And 1/2 teaspoon table salt.

Ensure the oven temperatures are 350 degrees Fahrenheit after preheating. Use olive oil to coat the bottom part of the baking pan to avoid the triggerfish from sticking. Put the fish on the baking pan and sprinkle over it with lime or lemon juice. Use pepper and salt to season the triggerfish to taste. Put the pan in the oven to bake triggerfish for 8 minutes. After turning the fillets, bake them for 8 more minutes. Since the fillets are thin, they will cook fast. So, monitor them closely to ensure they don’t overcook. When the fillets become flaky and opaque, the dish is now ready. Take the fish out of the oven and serve while still hot.
