The Latin Kitchen — Season 1, Episode 12: Baja Dishes

Episode synopsis

Imagine you're on a white sand beach in the beautiful coastal region of Baja, Mexico. What are you eating? Chef Luis Valenzuela has a pretty good idea and he's ready to share his favourite recipes. To start, he grills up a fresh snapper that's been marinated in guajilla chilli paste, giving it just the right amount of spice. He places the charred fish on a soft tortilla and sprinkles it with lime, red onion and cilantro, making this the perfect beach snack.
