Today I would like to show you a recipe called "Monkfish and zucchini with chorizo pepper sauce", by the great Spanish chef, Karlos Arguiñano.
Karlos Arguiñano says that: "A monkfish is a white fish that contains proteins of high biological value, and that has many vitamins and minerals that make this dish a tasty and healthy menu".

Peel the garlic cloves, cut them into slices and brown them in a saucepan with a little bit of olive oil. Peel the red onions, dice them and add them. Sauté the onions until golden. Peel the apple, remove the core, cut it and add it. Also add the meat of the dried red peppers, the breadcrumbs, the white wine and the cooking water of the dried red peppers. Cook the sauce over medium heat for about 20 minutes. Transfer it through the food mill to a saucepan and keep it warm.

Wash the zucchini and cut it (with skin) into half centimetre slices. Season, coat them with flour and beaten egg and fry them in a pan with oil. Remove and drain them on a plate covered with absorbent kitchen paper.
Cut the fish into fillets ½ centimetre thick. Coat them with flour and beaten egg and fry them in the same pan where you fried the zucchini. Drain them on a plate covered with absorbent kitchen paper.
