Tips:
- Choose the freshest red snapper possible. Look for fish that is firm to the touch and has bright, clear eyes.
- Score the fish before cooking. This will help the marinade penetrate the fish and ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade in this recipe is a great combination of savory and sweet flavors. Be sure to let the fish marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Cook the fish over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
- Serve the fish with a refreshing relish. The ginger-scallion relish in this recipe is a great way to add a bright, flavorful touch to the fish.
Conclusion:
This red snapper with ginger-scallion relish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is flaky and flavorful, and the relish is a great way to add a pop of freshness. Serve this dish with rice or your favorite vegetables for a complete meal.
