A delicious and easy red snapper dish, with the flavors of the summer. You can substitute almost any firm-fleshed fish, but snapper is my favorite!
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 2 pounds skin-on red snapper fillets
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 pinch garlic salt, or to taste
- 1 pinch ground red chile pepper, or to taste
- ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 lime
- 2 tablespoons butter
Directions
Step 1
Spray a baking dish with cooking spray. Place red snapper skin-side down in the baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with garlic, garlic salt, and red pepper. Spread cilantro evenly over the fish; squeeze lime evenly on top.
Step 2
Marinate in the refrigerator, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Melt butter and pour evenly over the fish.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until flesh flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 18 minutes. Serve with juices spooned over the fish, if desired.
Cook’s Note:
Substitute Cajun seasoning (such as Tony Chachere's(R)) for the ground red pepper, if desired.
