Ingredients to make fish marinara:
- For fish sailors
- 2 boneless fish fillets
- ½ cup flour (70 grams)
- 1 egg
- amount of oil needed for frying
- for the garnish
- ½ cup white rice
- 2½ cups of water (600 milliliters)
- 1 small onion

How to make fish sailors:
- To start with the seafood fish recipe, first peel and chop the onion. Next, sauté it with a tablespoon of oil in the saucepan and then cook the rice.
- When the onion has browned, remove from the heat, and then add the rice and water. Stir and take to the fire again to cook the rice. The cooking time will depend on the variety of rice you have chosen; in this case we have used “double Carolina” which takes about 10 minutes.
- When the rice is cooked, remove from the heat, add the chopped raw spinach and mix with the rice. Season to taste with pepper and nutmeg. Then reserve.
- Beat the egg in one container and place the flour in another. Keep in mind that the containers must have the necessary size so that the fish fillets can be placed well.
- Coat the fillets by passing them in the flour and then in the egg and again in the flour.
- Heat the oil and when it is hot, dip the fish shells.
- When the fish is golden on both sides, remove the shells and place them on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
- Plate the fish sailors with the rice with vegetables and it’s ready to eat
With what to accompany the fish to the sailor
There are some ways to vary this preparation and in any case, it will still be just as rich, easy and fast.
For example, you can flavor the egg with garlic and finely chopped parsley or with a teaspoon of mustard. You can also replace the flour with breadcrumbs. This type of batter will allow the fish to be cooked in the oven instead of fried, making it healthier.
