A delicious Pan-Fried Small Yellow Croaker recipe.

Clean and prepare the small yellow croaker. Score the fish lightly on both sides for better seasoning absorption.

Season the fish with doubanjiang, chili powder, and sliced bird’s eye chilies. Let marinate briefly.

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Pan-fry the croaker until golden and crispy on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Serve hot.
