Herb Crusted Red Snapper Recipes

Steps:

• Spoon lemon juice over both sides of fillets. Combine the lemon zest and seasonings; sprinkle over fillets., Lightly oil the grill rack. Grill fish, uncovered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush baking sheet with olive oil. Place snapper fillets, skin side down, on work surface; season with salt and pepper; spread each with 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard.
• Place herbs on plate; balance strong herbs, such as dill and thyme, with milder ones, such as parsley. Press mustard-coated side of fillets in herbs to coat evenly.
• Bake fish on baking sheet, skin side down, until opaque throughout, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve with couscous.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• With a sharp knife, make 5 slits, at an angle and about 1 1/2 inches apart, on each side of the fish. Rub 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over each side of the fish, then season each side with Creole seasoning. Place the fish on the prepared baking sheet. Combine the kosher salt, herbs, lemon zest, and juice, orange zest and juice, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl. Mix well. Mound the mixture evenly on the surface of the fish, leaving the head and tail uncovered. With your fingers, firmly press the mixture into the flesh. Bake for 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and cool for 2 minutes.
• With the back of a heavy spoon or a mallet, lightly pound the salt crust to crack it open, beginning at the tail end. Carefully pull off the salt crust. Then, with a small spatula or wide knife, remove the flesh from the bone on the top side of the fish. Remove the back bone, then serve the flesh from the bottom side of the fish. Spoon the rice in the center of each serving plate. Lay the fish on top of the rice. Spoon some of the salsa over each serving.
• Combine all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl and toss well. Allow the salad to sit for 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Brush a baking sheet with the olive oil. Place the snapper fillets, skin side down, on a work surface; season with salt and pepper and spread each with 1 1/2 teaspoons of the mustard.
• Place the herbs on a plate; press the mustard-coated side of the fillets in the herbs to coat evenly.
• Bake the fish on the baking sheet, skin side down, until opaque throughout, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately with couscous, if desired.

Steps:

• When cooking with a whole fish you must first be sure that the fish is gutted, your local fish market will do this for you. The skin should be scaled and the gills and fins removed. Leave on the head and tail. Rinse the fish inside and out then pat dry.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the parsley, orange, fennel, bay leaves, shallot, red pepper flakes, fennel seed, and 1/4-cup olive oil. Stuff the cavity of the fish with 3/4 of the mixture, then spread the remaining 1/4 on the bottom of a roasting pan so the fish will not stick.
• Transfer the fish to the roasting pan and rub the skin with remaining olive oil. In another bowl, whip the egg whites to a stiff peak, then fold in the salt to make a paste. Smear the salt paste over the entire fish and roast in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 30 to 40 minutes. The egg whites form a hard crust that will crack like a shell. To serve, scoop the flesh from the fish with a spoon.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Position a rack in the middle of oven. In a bowl, stir together salt and one cup water until salt is evenly moistened. Score both sides of the fish, cutting slits just through skin to expose a little flesh. Sprinkle inside cavity lightly with salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Rub two tablespoons of the herbs into cavity and insert lemon slices. Rub one tablespoon chopped herbs onto each side of the fish, pressing into slits.
• Spread half the salt mixture in an oval just larger than the fish on a large baking sheet. Set fish on top of the salt. Pat remaining salt mixture over fish to cover completely and mold around curves of the fish. It's okay for the tail to stick out a little bit. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove baking sheet from oven and rap edges of salt crust to loosen it. Lift the crust from fish. It's okay if the skin comes away with crust.
• To serve, use a spatula to cut exposed side of fish into two portions and place on two warmed dinner plates. Lift tail to remove bones in one piece and expose other side. Cut that side into two portions, lift it from bottom salt and place on warmed plates. Drizzle each portion with extra virgin olive oil and splash of sherry vinegar if desired. Sprinkle with remaining herbs and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to boil. Add grated potatoes, boil for 30 seconds, and then drain. Plunge into an ice bath and drain immediately. Spread the potatoes on a plate or baking sheet to dry. Toss with the melted butter, salt, pepper, cheese, and lemon zest. Coat each filet with potato, lightly pressing with fingertips.
• Place the fish on a lightly oiled baking sheet and roast for 15 to 20 minutes in the oven until lightly browned and cooked through.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Pat dry the fish and rub inside and out with the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, thyme and salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the fish in an oiled baking dish and bake it for 20 minutes, or until it flakes easily. Transfer to a serving plate, pour juices around fish and garnish with lemon wedges and fresh herbs.;

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Heat an oven-safe saute pan over medium heat. Season fillets with josher salt on both sides. Turn heat to high and add 3 tablespoons Miso Butter to the preheated pan; when it has melted, place fish on top of the butter, skin-side up, in an even layer. Move the fish around in the butter as it starts to bubble and the miso begins to caramelize, 2 minutes. Place pan in the oven to finish cooking fish, about 2-4 minutes, depending on thickness. Meanwhile, make the Herb Salad. (Note: If using a convection oven, place skillet on the middle rack. If using a conventional oven, place skillet on lower rack.)
• In a small saucepan over high heat, bring sake and mirin to a boil to burn off the alcohol. Once boiling, add sugar, stir, and continue boiling until the sugar has completely dissolved and the liquid is translucent. Turn off heat and stir in miso.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, add butter. Whisk at medium speed until butter is fluffy and pale yellow, 1 minute. Continuing on medium speed, slowly add the miso mixture in a steady stream to combine. Turn off motor, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and continue mixing again, just until incorporated. Pour Miso Butter into a bowl and set aside. Makes about 2 cups. (Store in a lidded container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.)
• In a bowl, combine Thai basil, mint, chervil, dill, and celery leaves (or a fresh herb combination of your choosing). Set aside.
• Remove fish from oven: it's fully cooked when opaque throughout, and should flake when touched. The Miso Butter will be brown and caramelized in the pan. Flip the fish onto a serving plate, skin-side up, and finish with a sprinkle of flaky salt. Pan sauce: To the caramelized butter in the hot pan, add 1 tablespoon of fresh Miso Butter and stir to combine. Spoon pan sauce over the fish. Add ponzu to the Herb Salad, toss, and serve with the fish.
