Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Season the snapper fillets on both sides with salt and pepper, and score the skin. Heat olive oil in an ovenproof sauté pan over medium-high heat. Place the fish, skin side down, in the pan and sear until crispy. Transfer the pants of the oven and continue to cook for another five minutes. While the fish is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water boiling. Remove pan from the oven, place fish on a platter, and loosely cover with foil to keep warm. Set the pan over medium-high heat, pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, for two minutes. Add the cream and Safwan; continue to cook, reducing the sauce until it is big enough to cling to the back of a spoon. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of butter and season to taste. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl. Return the strained sauce to pan. Add the gnocchi to the boiling water; boil until they float to the surface of the water. Drain and return to the pan with the remaining tablespoon of butter. Blend in the goat cheese, and adjust the seasoning, if necessary. Serve gnocchi with the fish and sauce Serving Suggestion: serve the snapper to one side of the plate. Place the gnocchi in a small rice bowl, and present the saffron sauce in a shot glass or small dish next to that. If you like, drizzle with balsamic reduction and green oil for style and color.

CRISPY-SKINNED FISH WITH HERB SAUCE
You don't need a culinary school degree to cook fish with skin as crunchy as a potato chip. Grab your nonstick skillet, start the fish skin side down, and slowly raise the heat. The skin will lie flat, gradually rendering fat like a strip of bacon, while the flesh gently cooks through. You can do this. Anyone can do this.

Steps:
- Using the side of a chef's knife, mash anchovies (if using) and garlic on a cutting board until a coarse paste forms. Mix in a medium bowl with herbs, pickles, lemon juice, and 5 Tbsp. oil. Season green sauce with kosher salt and pepper.
- Swirl remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet to coat. Season fish generously on both sides with salt and lay, skin side down, in cold skillet. Place skillet over medium heat and let it gradually heat up until fat starts to cook out of fish, about 4 minutes. At this point you may press gently on fish so that the skin is flat against the pan. Continue to cook until skin is super-crisp and flesh is mostly opaque (you can increase or decrease heat slightly if needed, but don't try to rush it), 8-12 minutes longer, depending on the thickness of the fish. Less fatty fish won't release as much fat on their own, so you may need to add a splash more oil to the skillet if the skin isn't getting crisp enough. Turn fish and cook just until opaque all the way through, about 1 minute.
- Spoon green sauce onto a platter and carefully set fish, skin side up, on top. Sprinkle with sea salt.
CRISPY WHOLE RED SNAPPER WITH CHARRED JALAPENO-BASIL VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- For the Charred Jalapeno-Basil Vinaigrette: Heat oil in a small saute pan until smoking. Add the jalapeno and cook until charred on all sides. Let the pepper cool and slice thinly. Place the pepper and the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until blended.
- For the Crispy Fish: Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F. Pat fish on both sides with paper towels to insure that it is totally dry. Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Mix rice flour and water together. Dredge both sides of each fish in the batter and tap off any excess. Slowly lower the fish into the oil and fry for 6 to 7 minutes. Carefully remove, drain on plate lined with paper towels and drizzle immediately with the vinaigrette.
- For the Grilled Vegetables: Toss vegetables with olive oil, salt and pepper, and grill until tender.

CRISPY GNOCCHI WITH TOMATO AND RED ONION
Inspired by panzanella, the beloved Tuscan bread salad, this dish swaps out stale bread for pan-fried gnocchi. The plump, crusty dumplings do a surprisingly good job at soaking up the summery combination of tomatoes, balsamic vinegar and olive oil, while still maintaining their crisp edge. Shelf-stable gnocchi work best, as they are sturdier and crisp up well, but you could use frozen gnocchi, taking extra care not to move them around too much in the pan so they don't break apart. Top with a sharp cheese such as Parmesan, pecorino or ricotta salata, for a hit of saltiness, if you like. This meal is best eaten immediately while the gnocchi remains crispy, but it can sit for up to 30 minutes, giving the flavors time to mingle. (However, don't let it sit too long, as the gnocchi will turn mushy.)

Steps:
- Heat a large (about 12-inch), well-seasoned cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high; add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the gnocchi to the pan, breaking up any that are stuck together. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, tossing every 1 ½ to 2 minutes so they get golden and crispy all over.
- Meanwhile, prepare your tomatoes: If you are using small ones like cherry or grape varieties, simply slice them in half. For larger tomatoes, quarter them or slice into bite-size chunks. (It is good to have a mix of shapes and sizes.) Place the tomatoes and onions in a large serving bowl. Add the balsamic vinegar and 1 teaspoon salt; season with pepper and gently toss.
- When the gnocchi are golden and crispy, add them to the tomatoes, along with 3 to 4 tablespoons of olive oil and a handful each of parsley and basil. Toss and taste, adding more salt or pepper as needed.
- Top with more parsley and basil, and eat immediately or at room temperature.
Tips:
- To achieve crispy skin on the snapper, ensure the fish is patted dry before searing. This will help the skin render and crisp up without steaming.
- Use a heavy-bottom skillet or griddle for searing the snapper. This will help maintain even heat and prevent the fish from sticking.
- When searing the snapper, do not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly and becoming soggy.
- To make the pickled onions, use a variety of colors for a visually appealing dish. Red onions, white onions, and shallots all work well.
- When making the tomato-bacon fondue, use a good quality bacon for the best flavor. Thick-cut bacon is also recommended for a more substantial texture.
- For the yellow tomato coulis, use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are a good option, as they have a high flesh-to-juice ratio.
- When making the malanga tumbleweed, use a mandoline to thinly slice the malanga. This will help the malanga cook evenly and become crispy.
