Packet of Whole Red Snapper with Veggies
PACKET OF WHOLE RED SNAPPER WITH VEGGIES
1 (3-5 lb.) whole fresh red snapper (head, scales and inners removed)
Kosher salt, red/black pepper, garlic powder
4-6 lemons sliced
2 pkgs. of assorted colored bell peppers, cut into strips (or 1 bell pepper of each color) seasoned
2 pkgs. of thick sliced portabella mushrooms (or 4 whole portabella mushroom caps, cleaned) seasoned
2 bundles of fresh asparagus, washed and hard stems removed, seasoned
1 (12-oz.) bottle Marzetti Simply Dressed Vinaigrette (Lemon)
1 (12-oz.) bottle Wishbone Balsamic Vinaigrette
1 bunch chopped fresh parsley or green onions
- Rinse off cleaned fish and pat dry.
- Season fish with salt, red/black pepper and garlic powder. Set aside.
- Take heavy duty foil and cut two long strips (make a “T” with foil and place on top of baking sheet) Make sure strips are large enough to fold over and cover the fish and veggies once assembled.
- Spray foil with PAM
- Layer in this order: You will only use ½ of the following because you will make two layers of each one. 1-Sliced lemons (as many lemon slices that is size of fish so that when fish is laid on it will be equal in distribution of the lemon slices); 2-Seasoned bell pepper strips; 3-Seasoned sliced mushrooms; 4-Seasoned asparagus.
- Drizzle with the lemon and balsamic vinegars.
- Place fish on top of the asparagus.
- Drizzle fish with the vinegars.
- Now put the top layer on the fish just like you did on the bottom: bell peppers, mushrooms, and asparagus. Drizzle with remaining vinegars. A few lemon slices on top.
- Fold up the foil to make a sealed packet.
- Place in 375 oven for 1 hour to 2 depending on size of your fish. Really can’t overcook it. The steam in packet keeps it moist.
- You can also cook at 375 for 1 hour and then reduce heat to 325 for another hour or two, depending when you want to serve it.
- Remove from oven, carefully open foil packet. Watch for the steam, it can be very hot.
- Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions.
- When serving, take a portion of fish with veggies and drizzle some of the juice that is in bottom of pan over the fish.
*Nice to serve with fresh lump crabmeat in a butter sauce or even grilled shrimp, etc.
