Absolutely! Red Snapper is a delicious fish that’s versatile and easy to prepare. Here are a few recipe ideas for your frozen filets:
- Baked Red Snapper:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the filets in a baking dish and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and your favorite herbs (like thyme or rosemary).
- Drizzle with olive oil and add lemon slices on top.
-
Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
-
Pan-Seared Red Snapper:
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the filets with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of paprika.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
-
Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a side of sautéed vegetables.

Fish Tacos:
- Bake or pan-sear the red snapper and flake it into pieces.
- Warm up corn tortillas and fill them with the fish.

Grilled Red Snapper:
- If you have a grill, this is a great option. Marinate the filets in a mixture of olive oil, lime juice, garlic, and cilantro for about 30 minutes.
-
Grill on medium heat for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through.

Coconut Curry Red Snapper:
- Sauté onion and garlic in a pot, then add coconut milk, curry powder, and your choice of veggies.
