12 best snapper recipes fillet
Cooking snapper fillets can result in a delicious and nutritious meal. Snapper is a popular fish known for its mild, slightly sweet flavor and tender flesh. Here's a simple recipe for preparing snapper fillets:
Ingredients:
- 4 snapper fillets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Prepare the Snapper Fillets: Start by ensuring that the snapper fillets are fresh and cleaned. Rinse them under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Check for any remaining scales or bones and remove them using tweezers or fish pliers.
Season the Fillets: Season both sides of the snapper fillets with salt and pepper to taste. You can be generous with the seasoning, but be careful not to overdo it to maintain the delicate flavor of the fish.
Heat the Olive Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Make sure the pan is hot before adding the fillets to ensure a nice sear.
Sear the Fillets: Place the snapper fillets into the hot skillet, skin side down if they have skin. Allow them to cook for 2-3 minutes without moving them. This helps create a crispy, golden-brown crust.
Flip and Cook: Carefully flip the fillets using a spatula or fish turner and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
Add Garlic and Lemon: During the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté briefly until fragrant. Then, pour the lemon juice over the fillets and let it simmer for a minute to infuse the flavors.
Garnish and Serve: Remove the snapper fillets from the pan and transfer them to serving plates. Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the fillets as a garnish.
Serve Hot: Snapper fillets are best enjoyed hot and immediately after cooking. You can serve them with a side of steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad.
This snapper fillet recipe is relatively quick and straightforward, allowing the natural flavors of the fish to shine. You can also experiment with different seasonings and sauces to suit your taste preferences.Remember to use a sharp fillet knife or a quality fillet knife accessory to ensure precise and clean cuts when preparing the fillets.

User questions & answers
Question: | How does this knife do cutting through bones |
Answer: | I wouldn't use it to cut through bones. That would ruin your knife. This is meant to cut meat away from the bone. |
Question: | Do these knives contain lead |
Answer: | Hi Will, Our Knives are made with G4116 German Stainless-Steel- and do not contain lead. |
Question: | How well does this hold a edge? Also after a couple sharpening does it still hold a edge like if it was new |
Answer: | For those too young to remember great grandpa shaving with a straight razor, let me give you a quick education. RAZOR sharp knife means it will not hold an edge. The sharper the edge, the quicker it will dull. That's why great grandpa had a razor strop that he honed his beard cutting steel with every time he used it. A fine razor edge on a fillet knife is important, as is the knowledge that you must hone (not sharpen) the edge regularly to maintain it. |
Question: | I am looking at a manual sharpener what would you recommend |
Answer: | Get yourself a Worksharp knife sharpener, either the orig one for $60, or the updated Ken Onion edition ($120), both are FANTASTIC. I’m TERRIBLE at sharpening anything, but this thing (I got the Ken Onion edition) has made it easy, quick and best of all, a “good knife sharpener” out of me! I don’t sell them, have no affiliation... I just like a good product when I get one, which is rare these days. Good luck. |

Its neon green highlights make the handle easy to spot in a marine environment, while adding stylish contrast to the basic black handle. The 9-inch fillet’s handle design, with its central contour and hand protectors at both ends, fits the hand and locks in for extra-comfortable grip.

User questions & answers
Question: | What type of steel is used for this knife |
Answer: | Stainless |
Question: | dishwasher safe |
Answer: | Would not advise putting any knife in the dishwasher except for butter knives. Water being sprayed acts like a sand blaster and will dull the edge. |
Question: | What is the blade angle sharpened to |
Answer: | Straight up and down, you don’t have to tilt your hand or wrist to angle your blade. Just start from the handle straight down and take your time or you will cut your hand open, I usually do about a dozen pulls before I clean fish. The tip seems to be harder to get as sharp as the rest of the blade??? |
Question: | Where is this Knife made |
Answer: | As mentioned on the package, the knife is made in China. |
