Whole Red Snapper, Simply Roasted Recipe


Whole Red Snapper, Simply Roasted Recipe




Ingredients:

1 whole red snapper, gutted -gilled and scaled -2-2 1/2 pounds
2 tbsp olive oil -preferably extra-virgin
2 tbsp sherry vinegar -or red-wine vinegar -or fresh lemon juice
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
lemon quarters, for garnish
chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 500°F. To make cleanup easier, line a roasting pan with
aluminum foil and set a wire rack in the pan.

2. With kitchen shears, snip the fins off the fish. Rinse the fish and blot
it dry with paper towels. On each side of the fish, cut 2 or 3 vertical
gashes through the flesh right down to the center bone. Sprinkle the fish
(on both sides) with 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1 tablespoon of the
vinegar or lemon juice, sprinkle with salt and pepper and rub the fish to
make sure the seasonings get into the gashes. Transfer the fish to the
prepared pan.

3. Roast, undisturbed, for 20 minutes. Check the fish for doneness by
peering into one of the slits; if the meat at the bone is opaque, the fish
is done. If not, continue to roast 5 to 10 minutes longer.

4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and
remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.

5. Transfer the fish to a platter. Drizzle the oil-vinegar mixture on top
and garnish with lemon quarters and parsley. To serve, use a spoon to lift
the flesh from the bone.
