About Spicy braised monkfish

Spicy Braised Monkfish is a flavorful seafood dish originating from Korean cuisine, celebrated for its bold spices and tender texture. The star ingredient, monkfish, is a low-fat, high-protein fish packed with essential nutrients like selenium, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids. The dish is typically braised in a rich, aromatic sauce made with gochugaru (Korean chili flakes), gochujang (fermented chili paste), garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Often accompanied by vegetables such as radish, zucchini, and scallions, it offers a balanced mix of vitamins and fiber. While its spicy profile stimulates the palate, the sodium content from seasonings like soy sauce and chili paste should be consumed in moderation. Spicy Braised Monkfish combines robust flavors with nutritional benefits, making it a delightful choice for those seeking a healthy yet indulgent meal rooted in East Asian culinary tradition.
