Red Snapper w/ Strawberry Avocado Salsa

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

@News2u
»»»Direct w/ CI pan 450-500℉ dome. Using very little butter sear each fillet....these were fairly thick so they went about 3.5 minutes per side. I would recommend skin on with these as they are delicate and hold together better w/ the skin left intact.
Salsa»»»Prep time roughly 15-20 minutes. 1 red onion petite diced, 2 pints strawberries hulled and petite diced, 1 fresh garlic clove minced, cilantro diced or herb shears, 1 lime zested, 2 limes juiced, 1 Tbs EVOO and S&P to taste. Place covered in refrigerator for about an hour or until you're ready to plate. Note: do NOT use a food processor because, even on pulse it will ruin the presentation. Don't ask how I know this

@NDG I'm sure it would compliment any white fish. And it goes nicely with Salmon as well.

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

@PNWFoodie it's a somewhat sweet flavor profile (at least the Atlantic FL caught do), firm texture, moist and it's a white mild and delicate. In other words NOM Nom Nom

Nice cook Husker! Like the creativity too!

minniemoh · February 2015

Wow Blake... first date night, and now this! Iron Chef indeed! That plated photo is something I would expect to see in a magazine. Nicely done man!

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

Thank you. I appreciate that @minniemoh

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

@minniemoh I actually still have leftover salsa that I'm gonna destroy with some tortilla chips and beer when I get off work.

Great looking meal im sure Mrs NPHusKerfl was very impress with your cook too any dessert ?

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

@cook861 Thank you very much. @HuskerMaMa loved it. Nope no dessert. She is coming off of a 10 day green smoothie cleanse so the meals are lite and lean. We are both still doing the smoothie for breakfast. They're actual pretty decent and good for us. Now I just need to hit the water to catch my own fish. Although I won't catch many Red Snapper or Grouper fishing in-shore like we do (bank & pier fishing). I've GOTTA hook up with @fusionhq to land the big ones.

Looks awesome!!

@NPHuskerFL is that himalayan salt in your grinder?

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

@JustGrillinFlorida Thank you Sir. Yes the grinders each have two cells. The salt one is filled with Himalayan Salt and Sea Salt & the pepper one is black peppercorn and medley peppercorn.

Very nice. I don't think enough people know how quality salt makes a difference.

A lot of times I look on here and decide the stuff is just over my skill set, or just too fancy and don't try it. Thank you for that salsa recipe. I'm gonna try it regardless of my skill level.

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

@epcotisbest don't discount yourself. Yes , some cooks on here are more complex than others. You can do it

flynnbob · February 2015

@NPHuskerFL did the cleanse do any good?

hapster · February 2015

Looks like a winner...

NPHuskerFL · February 2015

@texaswig the cleanse definitely helped her and now continuing a modified regimen with paleo lifestyle. I only dI one in the morning each day and I like it. We use the Ninja for this.

HendersonTRKing · June 2015

That looks spectacular. We eat a ton of fish and red snapper is a fave. Now fhat I have CI, I will egg it -- love that crisply skin. Your cook has inspired me to get some ASAP and pair if with that salsa! Thanks for sharing!
