  • Grind the oregano, black pepper, cinnamon, cloves, and bay leaf in a molcajete until a fine powder is formed. Then add the cumin, garlic, and grind until a paste forms; this is called white recaudo, which is used in many Yucatán recipes. Add the onion and achiote and grind until fully integrated.
  • Pour the orange juice and salt, mix until combined, this will be your red recaudo, which we will use to cook the fish. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
  • Place the roasted banana leaves on a tray and lay the butterfly-open white fish on top, then season with salt, add the lemon, orange juice, and brush with the red recaudo. Next, add the slices of red onion, green bell pepper, and tomato. Cover with a banana leaf and close it as if it were a tamale. Bake at 200 °C for 25 minutes.
  • Serve the Tikin Xic fish on the same banana leaf, decorate with yellow lemon, cilantro leaves, and serve on a Galleta Pan Crema® Gamesa. Accompany with pickled onions.
