Hi!
I'm portuguese and I live in Lisbon (Portugal).
If your in Laws are from St. Maria & St. Miguel, they came from Azores (Islands) and they have very special recipes there, like the tuna, but there is also the "cozido".
I made a search and I leave you with a couple of links (in english) were you can find tasty recipes to delight your in Laws (beware! in Laws from the Azores islands can be very demanding. People from the islands have lots of attitude LOL But also can be wonderful loving caring people).
Keep the links for the future and print the recipes you think you'd like the most because sometimes sites erase their content.
Please pay attention: I've seen on the internet several recipes from portuguese cooking who have nothing to see with portuguese cooking (they are african cooking). Portuguese don't spicy their food too much except on shrimp. :o) Source(s): http://www.portuguese-recipes.com/...

I really want to help you on this one, but the best website I know about Portuguese recipes is in Portuguese.
If you find it very difficult, I will be more than happy to help you translating anything and giving you advice regarding our 'cuisine'.
I can tell you in advance that usually with fish, potatoes are boiling, another option is to serve the fish with mash potato, but in this case the fish should be grilled or roasted.
