  • To ensure the snapper retains its flaky texture, avoid overcooking it. Fish is done cooking when it becomes opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • For a crispier skin, pat the snapper dry before searing it.
  • If you don't have a grill basket, you can cook the snapper on a lightly oiled grill grate.
  • To prevent the vegetables from burning, toss them in oil before grilling.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can bake the snapper and vegetables in a preheated oven at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
  • Serve the snapper with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or salad.

Conclusion:

Red snapper is a delicious and versatile fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you grill it, bake it, or pan-fry it, red snapper is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a seafood recipe, try one of the red snapper recipes from this article. You won't be disappointed!
