Intermediate
Second Course
Ingredients
- 1 cup Monini Delicato Extra Virgin Olive Oil, plus extra to coat the fish
- 80g butter, melted
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley
- 120ml lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons baby capers in brine, drained
- 1kg potatoes, cut into 1 inch chunks
- 1 -1.5kg whole snapper, scaled and cleaned
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Preparation
Method
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius (or prepare your BBQ if you are cooking the snapper on the BBQ).
- In a large jar or bowl mix together the extra virgin olive oil, melted butter, parsley, lemon juice & capers.
- Boil the potatoes in salted water for 20 minutes or until just tender. Drain & transfer to a bowl. Mix half of the dressing through the warm potato salad.
- Score both sides of the snapper three times diagonally on each side. Place the snapper on a baking tray and coat liberally with olive oil. Bake until the flesh is just cooked through, approximately 20-25 minutes (or place on your BBQ to cook).
- Remove from the oven and spoon the remaining dressing over the snapper. Serve with potato salad.
