GRILLED SNAPPER WITH TROPICAL FRUIT SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill.
• Place the red snapper fillets in a shallow dish. In a small bowl, combine lime juice, ginger, pepper, and olive oil. Pour the mixture over the fish and let sit for 15 minutes.
• Grill the fish over medium heat until the flesh is cooked through and opaque, about 4 minutes per side, depending on the size of the fish. Top with tropical fruit salsa and serve.
• In a medium-sized bowl, combine fruits with the green onion. Remove seeds and veins from chiles and mince. Add to fruit mixture along with the agave or brown sugar and chopped cilantro. Add salt, vanilla and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasonings.

SAUTéED RED SNAPPER WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• 1. In a medium bowl, blend together with a fork the butter, jalapeños, tomato paste, and cilantro to make a paste. 2. Season the fish with the salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, and fry the fish 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown on the outside and opaque but still moist inside when tested with a fork. Remove the fish to a platter, cover, and reserve. 3. To the same skillet add the onion, mushrooms, scallions, and garlic. Cook, stirring, 2 minutes over high heat. Stir in the butter mixture, and add the broth. Continue cooking over high heat until the sauce reduces slightly, about 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning. Add the fresh tomato and heat through, about 1 minute. Spoon the sauce over the fish. Serve hot.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore.

SAUTEED RED SNAPPER

Steps:

• Cut each snapper fillet in half crosswise. Season flesh with salt and cayenne pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot (but not smoking). Place snapper fillets, skin sides down, in skillet, pressing on fish with a spatula for 1 minute to prevent curling. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip, and cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes more.

RED SNAPPER GRILLED IN BANANA LEAVES

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Combine the cilantro, mint, chiles, ginger, scallion, coconut, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender and pulse to make a coarse paste. Add the coconut milk, lime juice, vegetable oil and fish sauce and blend to make a smooth, slightly thick sauce. Season with salt. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Make the fish: Preheat a grill to medium high. Lay the banana leaves on a work surface, overlapping each about halfway, so the leaves are large enough to wrap around the fish, with the tail and head sticking out slightly. Lightly brush the banana leaves with vegetable oil. Cut three 24-inch pieces of kitchen twine and run under water to moisten (this will prevent the twine from burning on the grill).
• Make 2 or 3 slits crosswise on each side of the fish, cutting about 1/2 inch into the flesh. Season the fish inside and out with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt total. Stuff the lime and ginger slices, chiles, and cilantro and mint sprigs into the cavity of the fish. Set the fish at one short end of the banana leaves and roll it up, leaving the head and tail sticking out, then tie together in 3 places with the kitchen twine.
• Once the grill registers 425˚ F to 450˚ F, grill the fish until the banana leaves are charred, about 12 minutes. Flip and grill until the fish is cooked through, 12 to 14 more minutes. (Because the fish is wrapped, it is difficult to test for doneness. The juices will run clear from the head and gills when poked.) Let the fish rest 5 minutes, then untie and remove the banana leaves. Lift the flesh from the bones and serve with the cilantro-mint sauce.

SAUTéED SNAPPER FILLETS WITH BANANA SALSA

Steps:

• 1. Prepare the banana salsa. Cover and refrigerate. (The salsa is best made no more than 1 hour before serving.) 2. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet and fry the fish 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown on the outside and opaque but still moist inside and just barely flakes when tested with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with the banana salsa.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore.
