Red Snapper Provencal Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Position a rack in the top third of the oven.
• Dry the snapper very well inside and out. Score the skin twice on each side. Season inside and out with 1 1/4 teaspoons salt. Stuff the cavity with the rosemary, oregano and orange slices and close the belly around the filling.
• On a rimmed baking sheet, toss together the capers, orange and red bell peppers, onions, red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place the fish in the middle of the vegetables and rub the skin with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Roast until the fish is cooked through and tender when pierced with a fork, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a platter to rest.
• Add the roasted vegetables to a blender; puree until smooth.
• Using a butter knife, cut the top fillet away from the fish by following the spine down the center of the fish. Remove the fillet with a fork. Flip the fish and repeat on the other side.
• Serve the fillets with the spicy roasted pepper puree.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Tear 2 pieces of parchment or aluminum foil, about 12-inch square.
• Drizzle some olive oil in center of each square and spread with your fingers. Set the filets, skin side down, over the olive oil in the foil and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle more olive oil over fish, then top with tomatoes and then fresh herbs. Drizzle drops more olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

• Wash the fish thoroughly and dry on paper towels. Score both sides of fish 3 times. Combine the minced garlic and jalapeno and stuff mixture into each of the 6 slits. Rub the fish with salt, pepper and all-purpose seasoning. Let fish marinate for 30 minutes (or overnight in the refrigerator for more intense flavor.)
• In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add the okra and bell pepper and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Make a slit down the center of the fish's belly. Stuff the belly of the fish with the okra and peppers and the chopped parsley. Place the fish on a rectangular piece of buttered foil. Place the remaining butter on top of the fish and drizzle with with the white wine.
• Seal the fish in the foil, but leave a slight opening to allow the steam to escape. Place the fish on a baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven, and transfer from foil to a serving dish, along with the juices collected in the foil.

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.

Top with more filling and juice from 1 lime. Repeat with remaining snapper fillet, seasoning, and lime juice in a second baking dish.
