• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle both sides of fish with remaining salt and pepper.
• coat pan with oil.
• add fish to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.

LAZY DAYS RESTAURANT FISH WITH KEY LIME BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the water, wine and key lime juice in a large saucepan over a high heat and reduce by half, about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic power. Add pepper to taste. Cut the butter into pats about the size of 1 tablespoon. Reduce the heat to low. Add one pat butter and whisk until the butter is incorporated. Add another pat and continue until all of the butter is used.
• Mix the water and cornstarch together and add to the sauce. Raise the heat to medium and stir until the sauce thickens and a few bubbles appear. Set aside while the fish cooks.
• Mix the eggs and water together in a small bowl (whisk vigorously til combined).
• Place the flour on a plate and dip the fish fillets into flour, coating both sides.
• Dip the fish into the egg wash.
• Place the bread crumbs on a second plate and coat the fish with bread crumbs, making sure both sides are coated.
• Heat 4 tablespoons of the Key lime butter sauce over medium-high heat in a skillet large enough to hold the fish in one layer. Add the fish and sauté for 4 minutes. It should be golden. Turn the fish and sauté for 4 minutes for 1 inch thick fillets. Sauté 2 minutes longer for thicker fish or 2 minutes less for thinner fish. The fish is cooked when the flesh is opaque, not translucent. (I had trouble sauteing in the sauce, and did use olive oil or coconut oil here).
• Place the fish on 4 dinner plates. Spoon the sauce over the fish. Sprinkle the tomatoes, scallions, parmesan cheese and parsley over the fish.
• Note: I have had the best success with setting up all ingredients before cooking. My prep time and cook time may be a bit off only because I make it an event and take my time so I guessed at both as if I was trying to get the job done normally. The ingredients are copied verbatim from book, and are in order of use, and I thought a bit confusing at first, but it works! Lastly, use real butter, good fish and fresh herbs and cheese. It makes all the difference.

SPICE-RUBBED SNAPPER WITH LIME AND CILANTRO

Steps:

• Season the snapper with salt and pepper. In a large shallow bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, chopped cilantro, turmeric, ginger, shallot and garlic. Add the snapper fillets and turn to coat well. Cover and let stand for 30 minutes.
• Preheat a broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Remove the fish from the marinade and arrange on the prepared baking sheet. Broil 6 to 8 inches from the heat until the fish is opaque in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve immediately.

SAUTéED SNAPPER WITH LIME CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 200°. Season the snapper fillets with salt. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Cook the fish about 3 minutes per side or until it is golden brown on the outside, opaque but still moist inside, and just barely flakes when tested with a fork. Transfer to a platter. Keep warm in the oven. 2. Melt the butter in the same skillet and cook the onions, garlic, cilantro, and chile over medium-heat until wilted and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the broth and cream. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until the sauce reduces and thickens, about 2 minutes. Stir in the lime juice. Adjust salt. Serve the fish hot, with the sauce spooned on top.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

MACADAMIA NUT-CRUSTED SNAPPER WITH MANGO LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the mango, wine, sugar, ginger, and lime juice and simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes, until thick and syrupy. Add the cream, mix well, and remove from the heat. Pour into a blender and blend until smooth (or use an immersion blender). Return to the saucepan and simmer over low heat for 8 minutes, until the mixture thickens slightly. Add the butter, a piece at a time, and stir until incorporated before adding the next piece. Be careful not to boil the sauce, or it will separate. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Place the nuts, panko and basil in a food processor and process until fine. Spread on a plate. In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise and Sriracha (chile paste) and mix well. Lightly season the fish with salt and pepper. Evenly spread a light coat of the chile mayonnaise on one side of each fish fillet. Coat the same side evenly with the nut coating.
• In an ovenproof saute pan or skillet, pour in just enough oil to coat the bottom and heat over medium heat. (Be careful not to heat the pan too hot or the macadamia nuts will burn). Add the fish, crust side down, and saute for 3 minutes, until golden brown. Turn the fish and place in the oven for 5 minutes, until cooked through and firm to the touch.
• Place the fillets on warmed individual places. Serve with the mango-lime butter.
