Barb's Firecrackers image

I love Mexican food so this recipe in inspired from south of the border, yet created in New England. You can adjust the heat on the recipe by using a hotter or milder taco seasoning.

Time 1h20m

Yield 72

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (16 ounce) cans refried beans
2 envelopes taco seasoning mix (such as McCormick® Original)

2 fresh red chile peppers, seeded and cut into thin strips - or as needed

Tips:

  • Choose fresh wahoo: Look for firm, opaque flesh with a mild, sweet odor. Avoid fish with a slimy texture or a strong fishy smell.
  • Make sure your oil is hot enough before adding the wahoo: This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking multiple pieces of wahoo, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the wahoo: Wahoo is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it just until it's opaque throughout. Overcooking will make the fish tough and dry.
  • Serve the wahoo immediately: Wahoo is best enjoyed hot off the grill or out of the oven. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Firecracker wahoo is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner. With its spicy, flavorful coating and moist, flaky flesh, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new way to enjoy wahoo, give this recipe a try!
