With spatula turn fillets over and sauté until golden, about 30 seconds more. Transfer fillets, skin sides up, to a non-stick baking pan and sauté remaining 2 fillets in 1/2 teaspoon oil in same manner. Bake fish in middle of oven until just cooked through, about 3 minutes.
  • While fish is baking, in a large non-stick skillet heat 1/2 teaspoon remaining oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté carrots until barely tender, about 2 minutes. Add remaining 1/2 teaspoon oil, bell pepper, and snow peas and sauté vegetables, stirring, until just tender, about 30 seconds. Add cabbage and onion and sauté, stirring, until just tender, about 1 minute. Immediately transfer sautéed vegetables to a bowl and toss with coriander, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Divide potato among 4 plates and top with sautéed vegetables. Put fillets, skin sides up, on vegetables and drizzle with some glaze.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest red snapper you can find. Look for fish with bright, clear eyes, red gills, and a firm, springy texture.
  • Score the skin of the red snapper before cooking. This will help the glaze penetrate the fish and create a crispy crust.
  • Use a combination of sweet and savory ingredients in your glaze. This will create a well-balanced flavor that complements the delicate taste of the red snapper.
  • Cook the red snapper until it is just cooked through. Overcooking will make the fish dry and tough.
  • Serve the red snapper immediately after cooking. This will ensure that the fish is at its best.

Conclusion:

Orange glazed red snapper is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of sweet and savory flavors in the glaze complements the delicate taste of the fish, and the crispy skin adds a nice textural contrast. This dish is sure to impress your guests!
