Step by Step Method

Step 1

Simmer the potatoes in salted water until they are tender (skin on).

Place the fish onto warm serving plates.

Step 6

Add the capers, parsley and lemon juice to the pan, scraping up all the brown bits.

Step 7

Season well and pour over the fish.

This was a splurge for us....I no longer have the ex that caught my fish fresh! So paid $17 a pound for the snapper! But delicious. Baby potatoes are always a pleaser around my house. I added more lemon juice and capers, because my salmon fillets were very thick. Wonderful dinner!

Lovely snapper! I did not use the potatoes as I made your http://www.recipezazz.com/recipe/soba-noodle-salad-with-peanut-sauce-18375 to go with it. Instead of the parsley, I used cilantro. Did find that the sauce was a wee bit acidic, so added a sprinkling of sugar. Will be made again when I am able to get fresh snapper! Thank you for sharing Pat!
