Cooking Foods Italian Recipes – Monkfish with “Friggitelli” Pepper Bells
More details in my culinaty books published by Amazon.com
The monkfish is one of the tastier fish around. Its flavor match pretty well with pepper bells, either sweet or spicy-hot, the “friggitelli” are very sweet.
If you cannot find the “friggitelli” you can use pepper-bells instead and, if you like spicy food, I suggest to you to add one “jalapeno” or even half “habanero” to this recipe.
Remember that the pepper-bell taste have to harmonize with the monkfish taste and not to override it.
