This Mojarra Frita recipe is a delicious fried fish dish, bursting with flavor and crispy goodness. It is a culinary delight, perfect for all seafood lovers and ready in under 30 minutes!

Mojarra is a popular dish enjoyed throughout Latin America, especially popular throughout Central and South America. Although it is consumed throughout the whole year, it’s also a special dish to make for special occasions, holidays and especially popular during Lent and for Good Friday.
It’s inexpensive and incredibly easy to make with impressive flavorful results.
Easy and perfect to pair with a multitude of dishes! Sometimes I pair mojarra with just a simple salad, yuca frita and coditos. Other times when I want to serve my family a more filling meal, I serve it with arroz blanco, habichuelas guisadas, tostones and avocado.
