Easy and delicious. Any white fish could be used. I like cod and halibut. Ingredients:
2 lbs red snapper or 2 lbs other white fish fillets |
4 tablespoons limes or 4 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 teaspoons salt |
4 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup fresh breadcrumb |
1 garlic clove, minced |
6 tablespoons cilantro leaves, crushed |
1 teaspoon grated limes or 1 teaspoon lemon peel |
fresh ground pepper |
warmed tortilla |
Directions:
1. Rinse the fish under running cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Rub the fish with half of the lime or lemon juice and 1 teaspoons or the salt and place the fish skin-side down, in a lightly oiled heavy skillet.
2. Add sufficient cold water to cover the fish and the simmer gently over low heat for 5 minutes, turning twice during the cooking time.
3. In another skillet, heat half of the olive oil and add the breadcrumbs, garlic, remaining salt and 4 tbls. of the cilantro. Cook over a low heat stirring constantly until the crumbs are golden brown.
4. Spread over the fish and simmer for 7-10 minutes, until the fish flakes easily.
5. Blend the remaining lime or lemon juice and oil together and pour over the fish. Cook for 2-3 minutes
6. Combine the remaining cilantro with the grated lime or lemon peel and sprinkle over the fish. Season with black pepper and serve with hot warm tortillas.
