Red Snapper With Herbs 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:

• In a food processor, combine the first nine ingredients; cover and process until fennel is finely ground. Transfer to a shallow bowl; dip fillets in herb mixture, coating both sides., In a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, cook fillets in oil for 3-4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Steps:

• Stuff and cook the snapper: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. If the fins are still on the fish, use kitchen scissors to cut them off (they just fall apart when cooked). Sprinkle both the inside and the outside of the fish liberally with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper, whole basil leaves, oregano sprigs, garlic and lemon slices.
• Using a very large (14-inch) saute pan or a small roasting pan (oven safe) heat about 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium-high heat until smoking. Add the fish and cook until well browned on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the fish over-use a large spatula and grab the tail if it's not too hot-and cook on the other side until well browned, about 2 minutes. Take the fish out of the pan and use wadded paper towels to wipe the pan clean of the oil.
• Cook the vegetables: Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, a pinch of red pepper flakes, the tomatoes, potatoes, chopped oregano and a pinch of salt and cook until the tomatoes begin to lose some of their liquid, about 3 minutes. Return the fish to the pan, laying it on top of the vegetables and drizzle about a tablespoon of olive oil over it. Add the chicken broth to the pan and squeeze the remaining lemon half into the sauce in the pan. Cook on the stove another 3 to 4 minutes, basting the fish with the sauce and moving some of the tomatoes and potatoes in the pan on top of the fish.
• Finish cooking the fish in the oven safe pan in the oven 18 to 19 minutes. (To check for doneness, push the head down gently in the area between the nose and the top of the head; when the head easily moves away from the back of the neck, it is ready.)
• To serve: Remove the fish from the oven and carefully transfer it to a sided platter, pouring any liquid in its cavity back into the pan, and keep the fish warm. Return the pan to the stove over medium heat and cook the sauce and vegetables for a minute or two to concentrate the flavors. Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, the chopped basil and season with additional salt and pepper if necessary. Pour the sauce and vegetables over the fish and serve, using a large spoon to remove servings off the fish. (Don't forget to turn it over to eat off the other side!)

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:

• Remove the fish 15 minutes before cooking to "temper." Thoroughly pat dry each fillet on both sides with paper towel. Score the skin lightly with a sharp knife, carefully. Do not pierce the flesh.
• Cut the orange and grapefruit sections into thirds. Place in a bowl with the celery and toss with the mint and herbs.
• Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over very high heat. Just before searing, season the flesh side of the fish with salt and pepper. Drizzle in the oil and add the fillets, flesh side down to the pan. Sear for 2 minutes. Season the skin with salt and pepper and flip. Cook another 2 minutes. Both sides should be golden brown and slightly crispy. Serve each fillet with a couple tablespoons of citrus relish on top. Garnish with fresh mint.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Cut 1 lemon into 8 wedges. Grate rind of remaining lemon to measure 1 teaspoon; set aside. Reserve second lemon for another use.
• Combine salt, paprika and pepper; sprinkle over fish. Arrange fish and lemon wedges on a rimmmed baking sheet coated with cooking spray (I cover the sheet with foil then spray for easy clean-up). Bake at 425 degrees for 13 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
• While fish bakes, combine 1 teaspoon grated rind, butter and 1 1/2 teaspoons of fresh thyme in a small bowl.
• Place fish on individual serving plates; top each fillet with herb butter. Garnish with lemon wedges and chopped fresh thyme, if desired.
