Add the rice and cook, stirring, until opaque and nutty in aroma, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken broth and salt, stir well, and bring to a boil. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and transfer to the oven. Bake until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove the rice from the oven and let stand, undisturbed, for 5 to 10 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the green onions, if desired. Serve hot.
  • Combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Add just enough olive oil for flavor and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

VERACRUZ-STYLE RED SNAPPER



Veracruz-Style Red Snapper image

I like red snapper for this, but any white, flaky fish will work. By the way, many Veracruz-style fish recipes call for pickled jalapenos, but I think there's plenty of acidity in this from the lime and tomatoes, so I like the fresh pepper a little more.

ROASTED WHOLE RED SNAPPER WITH TOMATOES, BASIL, AND OREGANO BY SCOTT CONANT RECIPE BY TASTY



Roasted Whole Red Snapper With Tomatoes, Basil, And Oregano by Scott Conant Recipe by Tasty image

One of the reasons why I chose to work with the Alzheimer's Association is because my grandmother had dementia and some of the most meaningful moments I had with her were around the table, sharing a meal. So, I wanted to create a recipe that's fun, easy, full of flavor, and, most importantly, can be enjoyed together with friends and loved ones. Words alone can't convey how magnificent, how beautifully ceremonial a whole fish looks when presented at the table. I'm always excited when I and a few friends settle in to devour one. (And devour we do, you should see how little is left when we're through with it.) Aside from being so good-looking, a whole fish also offers much more flavor because the head and the bones add depth to the accompanying sauce. A completely gratifying dish!

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Dinner

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 lb head-on red snapper, scaled and cleaned
2 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided, plus additional to taste
1 lemon, half sliced, divided
5 small sprigs fresh oregano, plus ½ tablespoon chopped leaves, divided
10 fresh basil leaves, plus 1 tablespoon chopped leaves, divided
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 ½ cups cherry tomato, halved
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
6 fingerling potatoes, diced and blanched
1 cup homemade chicken broth, or low-sodium chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
  • If the fins are still on the fish, use kitchen scissors to cut them off (they just fall apart when cooked). Season both the inside and outside of the fish liberally with 2 teaspoons of salt. Stuff the cavity with the lemon slices, oregano sprigs, and whole basil leaves.
  • Using a very large 14 inch (35 cm) sauté pan or a small roasting pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Add the fish and cook until well browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Drizzle with another tablespoon of olive oil and season with remaining ½ teaspoon salt.
  • Using paper towels, wipe the excess oil out of the pan. Drizzle the fish with another 2 tablespoons of olive oil and add the cherry tomatoes and red pepper flakes and cook until the tomatoes begin to release some of their liquid, about 3 minutes. Stir in the potatoes.
  • Squeeze the juice from the remaining lemon half over the fish and pour in the chicken broth. Carefully flip the fish over and baste with the sauce.
  • Transfer the fish to the oven and cook for 18-19 minutes. To check for doneness, push the head down gently in the area between the nose and the top of the head; when the head easily moves away from the back of the neck, the fish is ready.
  • Carefully transfer the fish to a rimmed serving platter, pouring any liquid from the cavity back into the pan. Cover the fish with foil to keep warm.
  • Return the pan to the stove over medium heat. Cook the sauce and vegetables for 1-2 minutes to concentrate the flavors. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, chopped oregano, and chopped basil and season with salt to taste.
  • Pour the sauce and vegetables over the fish and serve, using a large spoon to remove the flesh from the fish. (Don't forget to turn it over to eat off the other side!)
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest red snapper you can find. Look for fish that is firm to the touch and has bright, clear eyes.
  • Use a variety of tomatoes in your compote. This will give it a more complex flavor. Try using a combination of Roma tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. The flavors in this dish can be easily adjusted to your liking. Try adding a pinch of saffron or a few sprigs of thyme.
  • Be careful not to overcook the fish. Red snapper is a delicate fish that cooks quickly. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the red snapper immediately after it is cooked. This will ensure that the fish is at its best.

Conclusion:

Red snapper with tomato-olive compote and rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is cooked to perfection and the compote is flavorful and tangy. The rice is a great side dish that soaks up all of the delicious juices from the fish and compote. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
