PAN SEARED RED SNAPPER

Steps:

• Rinse snapper under cold water, and pat dry. In a shallow bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, rice vinegar, mustard, honey, green onions, and ginger.
• Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Dip snapper fillets in marinade to coat both sides, and place in skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Pour remaining marinade into skillet. Reduce heat, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

PAN-SEARED RED SNAPPER

Steps:

• Pat snapper fillets dry. Dust with flour, and shake off any excess. Sprinkle them on both sides with salt and pepper.Prepare a heavy pan with the olive oil and 1 TB butter. Heat on medium-high until butter is melted but not browned, then turn the heat down to medium.
• Place the fillets in the pan and cook about 4 minutes. Don't touch the fillets until they're ready to flip.Use a thin metal spatula to test the fish. If you can slide the spatula under the fish without the fish sticking to the pan, it's ready to flip. If the fillets won't release, give them another 30 seconds. They'll release when they've finished cooking.After flipping, divide the remaining 1 TB butter over both fillets.
• Cook fish another 3-4 minutes until done. Fish will be golden on both the top and bottom and opaque all the way through when finished cooking.Transfer the fish to plates, leaving the excess butter in the pan. Cover fish to keep warm, or set fish in a 200ºF oven.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add the lemon juice and capers, and stir with a wooden spoon. Add half the herbs and stir again. Serve fish hot with pan sauce and remaining herbs.

PAN SEARED SNAPPER RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Season the snapper fillets on both sides with salt and pepper, and score the skin. Heat olive oil in an ovenproof sauté pan over medium-high heat. Place the fish, skin side down, in the pan and sear until crispy. Transfer the pants of the oven and continue to cook for another five minutes. While the fish is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water boiling. Remove pan from the oven, place fish on a platter, and loosely cover with foil to keep warm. Set the pan over medium-high heat, pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, for two minutes. Add the cream and Safwan; continue to cook, reducing the sauce until it is big enough to cling to the back of a spoon. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of butter and season to taste. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl. Return the strained sauce to pan. Add the gnocchi to the boiling water; boil until they float to the surface of the water. Drain and return to the pan with the remaining tablespoon of butter. Blend in the goat cheese, and adjust the seasoning, if necessary. Serve gnocchi with the fish and sauce Serving Suggestion: serve the snapper to one side of the plate. Place the gnocchi in a small rice bowl, and present the saffron sauce in a shot glass or small dish next to that. If you like, drizzle with balsamic reduction and green oil for style and color.
