Day two in Abaco, not so great fishing, but really great food
On day two of my visit, we went deep-sea fishing for grouper and albacore. Captain Sandy, a friend and neighbor and a real Abaconian took us in his boat. Grouper is a stout-bodied fish with a large mouth and can be quite big and long. Albacore is a real prized catch and is a type of tuna. Both make for really good eating. Our hopes were high, but on that day, only one grouper was reeled in.
Good thing I had a hankering for arroz con pollo and I was happy to prepare it that evening. Arroz con pollo is kind of a simplified paella made with rice, chicken, tomatoes, green peppers, seasonings, and sometimes saffron. As a little twist, I added some shredded cabbage to the mix and it was really great. Sautéed plantains (related to the banana) and roasted pineapple slices were yummy for dessert.
