About Jamaican steamed fish
Jamaican Steamed Fish is a savory dish rooted in traditional Jamaican cuisine, known for its bold flavors and nutritious ingredients. Typically prepared with whole fish such as snapper or parrotfish, it is gently steamed alongside a vibrant medley of vegetables like carrots, okra, pumpkin, and bell peppers, seasoned with garlic, thyme, scallion, and Scotch bonnet pepper for a flavorful kick. Often served with crackers, this dish is rich in lean protein, vitamins, and minerals from the fish and vegetables, supporting muscle health and immunity. The steaming method preserves nutrients and reduces added fats, making it a heart-healthy option. However, the inclusion of salty crackers or excessive seasoning could elevate sodium levels, so moderation is key. Jamaican Steamed Fish offers a wholesome, delicious taste of Caribbean culture while contributing to a balanced diet.
