Escabecheng Isda Tanigue (Mackerel Fish) is a classic Filipino dish featuring crispy fried mackerel smothered in a rich, sweet, and tangy sauce with colorful vegetables. The fish is first seasoned and fried to golden perfection, then topped with a flavorful mix of bell peppers, carrots, onions, garlic, and ginger simmered in a savory-sweet sauce made with soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and tomato sauce. The result is a delicious balance of textures with a slightly sticky, glossy glaze—and a medley of flavors that’s both refreshing and satisfying.
