Tired of basic BBQ that tastes like it’s been reheated since the Stone Age? Let’s crank up the flavor dial with Sichuan Fire-Roasted Spicy Fish—a dish so bold, your taste buds will swear they’ve just teleported straight to Chengdu’s bustling night markets, where the aroma alone can make you forget all your worries (and your diet). This fiery masterpiece is perfect for your wood-burning stove—because nothing says "authentic" like smoky, crackling flames and a whiff of spice that could wake the dead (or at least your hungry neighbors). The smoky flavor from this method is a chef’s kiss, elevating your backyard cookout from "meh" to "magnifique."
What You’ll Need:
- 1 whole trout or tilapia — because a fish this fresh deserves to be the star of the show.
- Sichuan chili flakes, garlic, ginger, soy sauce — the holy trinity of fiery, savory, and umami magic.
- Veggies: bell peppers, onions, lotus root (for that crunch that keeps everyone guessing and chomping happily).
