Fish Preparation

Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Clean and Season the Fish

    Clean the red Madai snapper thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels. Rub the inside and outside of the fish with kosher salt and black pepper. Squeeze lemon juice over the fish, ensuring it coats the surface evenly.

Herb Mixture

  1. 2

    Prepare the Herb Mixture

    In a bowl, combine the chopped parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, and thyme. Mix well and set aside.

Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a large mixing bowl, toss together the cherry tomatoes, sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 4

    Arrange on Baking Sheet

    Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on a baking sheet, creating space in the center for the snapper.

Cooking the Snapper

  1. 5

    Stuff and Bake

    Stuff the herb mixture into the cavity of the snapper. Place the snapper in the center of the baking sheet, surrounded by the vegetables. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 30-35 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
