Scissor the king fish into pieces and marinate with onions, garlic, bell peppers, fresh cilantro, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and fresh thyme overnight.

Prepare a plate with 1 cup of flour, adding salt and black pepper, and mix together.

Cover the marinated fish pieces in the flour mixture, shaking off excess flour and setting them aside.

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.

Fry the fish pieces for about 6 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Remove the fried fish from the oil and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

In the same pot used for frying, add butter and a few tablespoons of oil.

Add the marinated onions and vegetables into the pot and sauté for about 3 minutes.

Add sliced bell peppers and cook until softened.

Stir in the flour and then gradually add water, stirring continuously to prevent burning.

Add in the diced tomatoes and carrots, along with ketchup and the fried fish pieces.

Sprinkle in all-purpose seasoning for extra flavor and stir well.

Let the mixture cook for about 5 more minutes on medium-low heat to allow the carrots to soften and flavors to combine.
