Yield 4 to 6 servings
Number Of Ingredients 10
Steps:
- In a blender or food processor fitted with the metal blade, combine the orange juice, vinegar, chipotle chilies, salt, and sugar and blend until chilies are finely chopped. With the motor running, add the oil in a steady stream and blend until incorporated. Adjust seasonings, add the mint and set aside. The vinaigrette can be refrigerated overnight without the mint, which should be added just before serving.
- Heat a grill. Brush fillets with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill until cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. To serve, transfer snapper fillets to a serving platter or individual plates and drizzle with the orange chipotle vinaigrette.

Steps:
- Bring a large kettle (at least 8-quart capacity) three fourths full of water to a boil for lobsters.
- In a blender blend zest, orange juice, vinegar, chipotles in adobo, salt, and sugar until chipotles are chopped fine. With motor running add oil in a slow stream. Vinaigrette may be prepared up to this point 3 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring vinaigrette to room temperature before serving.
- In boiling water partially cook lobsters, 2 at a time, over high heat 3 minutes and transfer with tongs to a colander to drain and cool. (Make sure water returns to a full boil before adding each batch of lobsters.)
- When lobsters are cool enough to handle, remove tails and claws and discard bodies. With kitchen shears halve tails (including shells) lengthwise, cutting off swimmerets on underside of tails if desired. Lobsters may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
- Prepare grill.
- Grill claws, in batches if necessary, on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, turning occasionally, until liquid bubbles at open end, 5 to 7 minutes, and transfer to a platter.
- Stir basil leaves into vinaigrette and reserve 1 1/4 cup in a small pitcher. Brush meat in lobster tails with some vinaigrette. Grill tails, meat side down, in batches if necessary, 3 minutes. Turn tails meat side up, brushing with more vinaigrette, and grill until juices are bubbling and meat is plump and opaque, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer tails to platter. Lobster may be grilled 2 hours ahead and cooled, uncovered, before chilling, covered.
- Serve lobster warm or chilled with reserved vinaigrette and garnish with basil sprigs.
CRISPY SQUID AND CRACKED CONCH SALAD WITH ORANGE-CHIPOTLE VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- For the Orange-Chipotle Vinaigrette:
- Place the orange juice in a medium nonreactive saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until thick and reduced to 3/4 cup. Transfer to a bowl and let cool slightly.
- Place the reduced orange juice, onion, garlic, vinegar, chipotle puree, honey, salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the oil until emulsified.
- For the Crispy Squid and Conch Salad:
- Fill a large saucepan halfway with the oil and heat until it reaches 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Line a large plate or baking sheet with paper towels, set aside.
- Whisk together the flour and 1 1/2 cups of the water in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. The mixture should resemble crepe batter, if it is too thick; add more water a few tablespoons at a time, then season with salt and pepper.
- Season squid and conch with salt and pepper and working in batches, dip 1/3 of the squid in the rice flour batter and allow the excess to drip off then dredge in the cornmeal. Fry until lightly golden brown and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on the paper towel-lined plate. Season immediately with salt. Repeat with the conch, dipping into the batter then frying in batches.
- Place the greens in a bowl and drizzle with about 1/4 cup of the orange-chipotle vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper. Mound the greens on a platter and place some of the sliced cherry peppers on top. Place the squid and conch around the perimeter of the platter, drizzle all with more of the vinaigrette and garnish with parsley leaves.
