Choco frito is a traditional dish originating from Setúbal, where it's the most famous local specialty. Although one might think that the dish contains chocolate, it actually consists of fried cuttlefish that's typically served with potato chips or fries, salad, and lemon wedges for squeezing the juice onto the choco frito. The cuttlefish is most commonly boiled with garlic and bay leaves, marinated in lemon juice and wine, then coated in seasoned cornflour before it's fried to crispy perfection. Once prepared, choco frito should be chunky, succulent, and crunchy on the outside. You can often find it as a part of petiscos , the Portuguese-style bar snacks similar to tapas.
