OPAKAPAKA (SNAPPER) WITH GREEN GRAPES
I found this recipe by restaurateur Bob Longhi and Chef Alex Mauricci, Longhi's Restaurant in Lahaina, Maui. I'm looking forward to trying it. Pink snapper is called opakapaka in Hawaii. Although the ingredients listed say red snapper, it really should be pink snapper, but I couldn't get that ingredient through.
