I'm thinking about making a veracruz-style fish next week but I'm wondering what I should serve with it.

The sauce has tomatoes, capers, olives so I want something light to complement those flavors.

Y'all are creative, what would you make?

Cous cous is my usual go to with fish that isn't battered and deep fried

Cube up peeled sweet potatoes put in sprayed nonstick foil lined baking pan . Drizzle w Olive Oil. Mix with hands to coat completely. Generously sprinkle w Cinnamon Sugar. Bake till fork tender. Spray w butter and sprinkle again and serve. Great compliment to all my fish dishes.

Parmesan roasted brussels, asparagus and/or broccoli. Maybe a little yellow squash or eggplant for color.

The best fish side dish is the sticky Asian rice and vegetables GWFins serves with their seared tuna.

I would try to make that. Although it may not go well with your fish sauce. Idk.

Angel hair pasta or a basic rice dish would work well. If you want a vegetable, try a simple pan roasted green bean dish, or steamed broccoli, cauliflower, and/or carrots.

This sounds great. I’d do some mixture of roasted vegetables.

Wrap 4-5 asparagus spears in prosciutto and grill (LINK ) and serve with risoto, couscous or angel hair pasta with garlic, olive oil and parmesan.
