Baked and Marinated Red Snapper Recipe
This Red Snapper Recipe takes into consideration the delicate nature of this Gulf fish. |
Using fresh ginger is critical for this seafood recipe. Powdered ginger just does not have the same impact as fresh ginger does.
Either fresh or concentrate orange juice works well here. The orange zest is optional, but necessary for full flavor.
Sea Bass can be used in place of eh Red Snapper, with superb results |
Other species of snapper include the yellowtail of Key West, the gray snapper, the muttonfish and the schoolmaster.
Although these other species are less colorful, they all make fine eating.
