Coconut fish is a delicacy in DR. This is fish stewed in a subtle coconut and tomato sauce. For my version of this dish I use Poagy fish, but you can use use any whole firm white fish for this recipe. Works best with fish that are about one pound each (one for each person) – red snapper is another good choices. Read more See less
