  1. This was so delicious. Thanks Inez for another simple is better recipe. The lemon butter sauce over the pan-seered red snapper was just fabulous. Couldn't have been any easier. My family and I loved this. ;)
     
  2. Delicious way to cook the snapper i just caught. The few minor mods I did on this recipe were seasoning liberally with kosher salt and pepper before coating in flour. I also put the butter and lemon juice in the pan with the fish and let it simmer for two extra minutes at the end of the cook. Finally, I garnished as directed with parsley and also the zest of the two lemons I squeezed for juice. I have people still talking about how good it was and we finished eating an hour ago. I only wish I caught more snapper!
     
  3. Very easy and very good. We had this with broccoli w/cheese sauce, sweet potato squares, strawberry halves and blueberries!

  4. Just like the stars state...perfect! Guess I could use a wee bit less butter for the final stage each time I make it. BUT, this is the fish that your remember in your best restaurants. I did add almonds to the final stage of browning the snapper and it was a wonderful thing!
     
  5. So good!! The fish cooked up perfectly. We did one fish fillet with the flour coating and one without. We definitely preferred the one with, but both were good and the one without sticks with my Paleo diet, especially since I used Kerrygold butter. :) Picture is of the fish without the coating, yummy!!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
