Name: Peixe Assado com Mandioca Frita
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 22 min
Total time: 37 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: Two 12-oz whole branzino, cleaned and gutted; 1 lb fresh cassava root, peeled; 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided; Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper; 1 lime, halved; 2 large ripe tomatoes, diced; 1 bird's eye chili, minced (seeds removed for less heat); ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tbsp fresh lime juice; Chili oil (store-bought or 2 tbsp olive oil infused with ½ tsp chili flakes)

A stunner of a beach-lunch plate inspired by São Paulo's grilled-fish tradition. Whole branzino, scored and seasoned, chars over high heat until the skin shatters like glass; served alongside crispy-outside, creamy-inside cassava fries and a vibrant fresh tomato relish spiked with cilantro and bird's eye chili.
