VERACRUZ-STYLE RED SNAPPER



Veracruz-Style Red Snapper image

I like red snapper for this, but any white, flaky fish will work. By the way, many Veracruz-style fish recipes call for pickled jalapenos, but I think there's plenty of acidity in this from the lime and tomatoes, so I like the fresh pepper a little more.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Latin American     Mexican

Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ white onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon caper juice
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
⅓ cup pitted, sliced green olives (such as Castelvetrano)
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 (7 ounce) red snapper fillets, cut in half
salt and pepper to taste
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more to taste
2 limes, juiced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion; cook and stir until onions begin to turn translucent, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Cook and stir in garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add capers and caper juice; stir to combine.

VERACRUZ-STYLE TILAPIA ("PESCADO A LA VERACRUZANA")



Veracruz-Style Tilapia (

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 (6-ounce) tilapia fillets or other white fish fillets
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups canned crushed tomatoes with juice
1 Anaheim chile, stemmed, seeded and cut into thin strips
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup pitted and halved green olives
1/4 cup capers, drained

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the fish fillets on both sides with salt and black pepper, to taste. Saute the fillets until they are opaque and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a glass baking dish where they fit snugly.
  • In the same saute pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, Anaheim chile, bay leaf and oregano and bring the pan to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, cover and let the sauce simmer until the chiles soften, about 6 minutes. Uncover the pan, add the olives and capers, and cook until the flavors combine, about 4 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Pour the sauce over the fish in the baking dish. Bake until the fish is heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven, discard the bay leaf and serve.

TILAPIA (OR SALMON) VERACRUZ



TILAPIA (OR SALMON) VERACRUZ image

I love preparing fish during the week as it is quick & easy (start to table in less than 30 minutes). Flavors reminiscent of Veracruz, Mexico. Spicy (but not hot--unless you want it that way). Enjoy!

Provided by Betty Richardson

Categories     Fish

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 6 oz fish fillets (tilapia, salmon, halibut, catfish, crappie)
2 Tbsp diced salad olives (green) (or capers)
1 can(s) rotel diced tomatoes with green chiles
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 fresh jalapeno, diced fine (optional)
4 tsp extra virgin olive oil (divided use)
1/8 tsp sea salt
1 Tbsp minced garlic (or 2 cloves, minced)
1/2 tsp granulated sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Generously grease 8" cast iron skillet or 8" square baking pan. Very lightly salt and pepper fish fillets
  • 2. Combine Rotel, olives, garlic, cumin, black pepper, jalapeno, sugar and 2 tsp EVOO and set aside. (Sugar counteracts acidity in the tomatoes). **You could substitute plain diced tomatoes or about 1-1/2 cups of grape or cherry tomatoes, halved in lieu of the Rotel.
  • 3. Put remaining 2 tsp EVOO into skillet & heat on medium high on stove top. When it just starts to smoke, place fish, "pretty side" down, and lightly sear for 1-2 minutes. Turn fish. Remove from heat and pour tomato mixture over fish. Place in preheated oven about 4-5 minutes until fish flakes easily. Serve hot with your favorite pasta or rice and a veg or a beautiful, mixed garden salad.
