Ingredients

Cost per serving $3.38 view details
  • 4 piece red snapper fillet - (5 ounce ea) skin on, but
  •     with all pin bones removed
  •     Salt to taste
  •     Freshly-grnd black pepper to taste
  • 2 Tbsp. olive or possibly vegetable oil
  • 1/4 c. sun-dry tomatoes, soaked in warm water,
  •     liquid removed and julienned
  • 1 x garlic clove finely chopped
  • 3 Tbsp. minced shallots
  • 2 Tbsp. minced fresh thyme
  • 2 Tbsp. minced fresh oregano
  • 4 tsp Basil Oil (see recipe)

Directions

  1. Season the snapper fillets with salt and pepper. Preheat a saute/fry pan with the extra virgin olive oil till the oil is warm, 1 to 2 min. Add in the snapper to the warm pan, flesh-side down, and cook over medium heat 4 to 5 min. Turn to cook the skin side an additional 3 to 4 min. The fillets will curl inward briefly, but once they have cooked 1 minute, they will begin to relax and lay flat again, allowing you to cook the skin side to a crispy texture.
  2. Lift out the snapper with a slotted spatula, leaving the juices and oil in the pan. Add in the sun-dry tomatoes, garlic, and shallots, and saute/fry together 2 min. Add in the fresh herbs to the pan. Stir quickly just to heat the herbs sufficient to release their aromas. Pour the sun-dry tomato and herb mix over the snapper. Then drizzle 1 tsp. Basil Oil over each fillet and around the dish. Serve immediately.
  3. This recipe yields 4 servings.
