Directions
- Prepare a charcoal grill for indirect cooking over medium-high heat.
- Wash the fish thoroughly and dry with paper towels. Sprinkle inside and out with the salt and pepper.
- Dissolve the achiote paste in the sweet orange juice, sour orange juice and vinegar. Rub the fish very well, inside and out, with the mixture. Refrigerate for 3 hours.
- Place the fish on a banana leaf and arrange the pimiento strips, red onions, tomatoes and garlic on top. Sprinkle with the oregano.
- Transfer the banana leaf to the grill and cook, covered, until the fish is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
- Serve with rice and refried beans, accompanied by tortillas.
