Garlic-Herb Red Snapper image

When it's time to fix dinner, Nancy and John Mueller of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin head to the kitchen together. Married 48 years, they find that dividing up the work is fun, saves time and yields delicious results. John, a retired elementary school principal and teacher, usually prepares the entree, "He especially likes to grill seafood like Garlic-Herb Red Snapper," says Nancy. "He started cooking 29 years ago when I went to work full time."

BRAISED RED SNAPPER WITH GRANDMA-STYLE ZUCCHINI, PEPPERS, AND BLACK OLIVES



Braised Red Snapper with Grandma-Style Zucchini, Peppers, and Black Olives image

"Grandma-style" means the vegetables are cooked like a stew in a big pot until they're soft and delicious. The vegetables taste better and better as you cook them down, and the broth tastes nourishing. This is one of the classic recipes I pull out in a pinch, and it's always welcomed.

Yield serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 red bell peppers
Extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
15 baby new potatoes, halved
3 zucchini, cut in 1/2-inch-thick circles
1/2 cup whole kalamata olives
3 garlic cloves, sliced
2 fresh thyme sprigs
6 fresh tarragon leaves
1/2 lemon, sliced paper-thin
2 cups Chicken Stock (page 156)
1 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
Juice of 1 lemon
2 center-cut red snapper fillets, about 8 ounces each, skin on, halved on the diagonal

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Pull out the cores of the red peppers; then halve them lengthwise and remove the ribs and seeds. Toss the peppers with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place them on a cookie sheet, skin side up, and broil for 10 minutes, until really charred and blistered. Put the peppers into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and steam for about 10 minutes to loosen the skins. Peel the peppers and cut them into big strips.
  • Heat a 2-count of oil in a wide pot. Add the roasted peppers, potatoes, zucchini, olives, garlic, thyme, tarragon, and lemon slices. Sauté everything together for a few minutes over medium heat to coat in the oil and soften; season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken stock, wine, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, and let it slowly simmer down for 30 minutes while you prepare the fish.
  • Rub a little olive oil and salt and pepper on the fish fillets. Add a 2-count drizzle of olive oil to a skillet and place over medium heat. When the pan is nice and hot, sear the fish, skin side down. Gently press on the fish with a spatula to crisp up the skin. Carefully transfer the fish to the pot of vegetables, skin side up. Turn the heat down to low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes. Keep an eye on it; don't let the liquid boil or cook the fish too long or it will fall apart. Serve the fish and vegetables in wide, shallow bowls with a ladle of broth and a drizzle of olive oil. Home-style goodness!

SAUTEED RED SNAPPER



Sauteed Red Snapper image

The mild, slightly sweet flavor and flaky texture of red snapper takes well to light seasoning and a quick saute. You can also make this dish with black sea bass. The skin of both fish is edible and crisps nicely in a skillet.

2 red snapper fillets (each 10 to 12 ounces), with skin

ROASTED RED SNAPPER WITH ROSEMARY

Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons olive oil
1 whole (3-pound) red snapper, cleaned, scaled
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, halved
1/2 small onion, chopped
1/2 small fennel bulb, chopped
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fennel fronds
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 small garlic clove, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Line a heavy large baking sheet with foil. Oil the foil and fish with 1 tablespoon of oil. Place the fish atop the foil. Sprinkle the fish cavity with salt and pepper. Squeeze 1/2 of the lemon inside the fish cavity. Fill the cavity with the onion, fennel and rosemary sprigs. Bake until the fish is just cooked through at the bone, about 40 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, squeeze the remaining lemon 1/2 into a small bowl. Whisk in the fennel fronds, rosemary, and garlic. Gradually whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil. Season the lemon sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Using a sharp knife, separate the 2 fillets from the backbone. Using a metal spatula, transfer the top fillets to a plate. Lift the fish backbone from the bottom fillets (the backbone and head should come off together easily), and discard. Using the spatula, transfer the remaining fillets to plates. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper. Drizzle the lemon sauce over the fish and serve.
