Best Broiled Red Snapper With Tamarind Sauce Recipes

BROILED RED SNAPPER WITH TAMARIND SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine water and tamarind and let stand for 10 minutes.
• Strain this using a strainer and squeeze the tamarind gently to remove as much juice as possible.
• To this tamarind water add the shallots, garlic cilantro stems, fish sauce, sugar and salt.
• Simmer this sauce stirring occasionally until slightly thickened (about 2 minutes). Keep warm.
• Preheat broiler.
• Lightly brush a small rack of a broiler pan with oil and arrange the snapper fillets skin side down.
• Season fillets with salt and broil 4 to f inches from the heat until just cooked through (about 7-8 minutes).
• While fish is broiling, thinly slice the scallions and chillies.
• Stir the whole basil leaves into sauce just before serving.
• Serve the fish with sauce over it and garnish with scallions and chillies and basil leaves.

GRILLED SNAPPER AND ASPARAGUS WITH RED PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bell pepper, garlic, shallot, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook until the bell pepper is tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the vinegar, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan; cook until mostly evaporated, about 1 minute. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes; discard the thyme. Transfer the mixture to a blender and puree; season with salt and pepper and add up to 1 more teaspoon vinegar, if needed.
• Preheat a grill to high and generously oil the grates. Rub the fish with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Rub the asparagus with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the fish skin-side down until the skin is marked and crisp, about 3 minutes. Carefully flip and grill until just cooked through, 1 to 2 more minutes. Grill the asparagus, turning occasionally, until charred in spots, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Spoon the pepper sauce onto plates. Top with the fish and asparagus; sprinkle with the parsley.

BBQ BROILED RED SNAPPER

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly coat with cooking spray.
• Combine mayonnaise, lemon juice, and barbeque sauce in a bowl.
• Place red snapper fillets on the prepared baking sheet and season with salt. Spread the mayonnaise mixture over the top of each fillet and sprinkle with cayenne pepper.
• Cook under the preheated broil until top is browned and bubbling and fish flakes easily with a fork, rotating the baking sheet if necessary, about 7 minutes.

BROILED RED SNAPPER FILLETS WITH CORIANDER BUTTER

Steps:

• Place the red snapper fillets on a platter, sprinkle with salt and pepper and brush each side with olive oil.
• Heat oven broiler or grill to high.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the shallots, lemon juice, soy sauce and coriander. Bring to a simmer, transfer to a small blender or food processor and blend to a fine texture. Keep warm.
• If the snapper is to be broiled in an oven, place the fillets skin side down on the broiler pan and place it about 4 inches from the heat. Leaving the door ajar, cook 3 to 4 minutes without turning the fish. Do not overcook. If the fish fillets are to be cooked on a hot grill, place them skin side up and cook about 2 1/2 minutes. Turn and cook skin side down for about 2 minutes more. Do not overcook. Pour the coriander butter over the fillets and serve immediately.

FRIED SNAPPER WITH CREOLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Prepare the sauce: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium until shimmering. Add the onions, red and green bell peppers and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and just starting to brown, about 7 minutes.
• Stir in the tomato sauce, thyme and 1 3/4 cups water; bring to a boil over high.
• Stir in the white vinegar and seasoning salt, reduce the temperature to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, prepare the fish: Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium. On a large plate, mix the flour and seasoning salt with a fork.
• Pat the snapper fillets dry using paper towels, and season 2 fillets with salt and pepper before dipping them into the flour mixture until coated on both sides.
• Once the oil is shimmering, gently lay the floured fillets in the hot oil, skin-side down, and cook until skin is crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a fish spatula, carefully flip fillets and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, until cooked through.
• Transfer the fish to a large paper-towel-lined plate. Cover loosely with foil and repeat with the remaining fillets.
• Divide fish among plates, skin side up, and top with the Creole sauce. Serve immediately, passing hot sauce at the table.
