Fish Fillet with Green Pipián

Lorenza Ávila
Pipián is a stew made from toasted and ground pumpkin seeds, giving it a very unique flavor. Depending on the region, pipián can be green, white, or red, and it is a dish that has been customary since pre-Hispanic times, although it has certainly evolved over time. For example, this fish in pipián recipe will be ideal for any day of the week.
