This modern twist on the Filipino sisig replaces pork with crispy, flaked milkfish (bangus), creating a lighter yet flavorful version. Fried bangus is chopped and combined with sautéed aromatics, chilies, citrus juice, and creamy mayo for a tangy, spicy, and rich dish. It’s ideal with rice and perfect for repurposing leftover fish.
