Serve with long-grain rice tossed with green onions. Use the spicy herbed butter on shrimp, lobster, sautéed chicken, or beef, as well. Ingredients:
1 1/2 tablespoons butter, softened |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro |
1 teaspoon minced seeded jalapeño pepper |
1/2 teaspoon grated lime rind |
1/4 teaspoon bottled fresh ground ginger (such as spice world) |
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided |
4 (6-ounce) red snapper or other firm white fish fillets |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
cooking spray |
lime wedges (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a bowl. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover and chill.
2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle both sides of fish with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add fish to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Place 1 fillet on each of 4 plates, and top each serving with 1 1/2 teaspoons butter mixture. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
