Cazón en Adobo offers a delightful combination of savory, spicy, and slightly tangy flavors, all balanced by the mildness of the dogfish. The adobo marinade infuses the fish with depth, while the frying creates a crispy exterior and tender interior.
The dominant flavor is the adobo marinade, typically featuring pimentón (Spanish smoked paprika - often sweet or hot), garlic, oregano, cumin, vinegar (usually sherry vinegar), and salt. These ingredients create a complex and slightly spicy profile. The dogfish itself has a mild, slightly sweet flavor that absorbs the marinade well. The frying process adds a layer of crispiness and a richer, savory note. The vinegar provides a subtle tanginess that cuts through the richness.

Choosing the Dogfish
Fresh, firm dogfish is essential. Look for fillets that are white and have a clean, ocean-like smell. Avoid any fillets that appear discolored or have a strong, unpleasant odor.
Marinating Time
Allow sufficient marinating time (at least 2 hours, ideally overnight) for the flavors to penetrate the fish. Longer marinating times will result in a more flavorful dish.
Frying Technique
Use hot oil for frying (around 350°F or 175°C) and avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry in batches to maintain the oil temperature and ensure a crispy exterior. Don't overcook, as the fish can become dry.
Serving Suggestions
Serve immediately after frying with a squeeze of lemon or a side of alioli (garlic mayonnaise). It pairs well with cold beer or dry sherry.
