Southwest Curried Snapper
It was time for fish again and snapper was on sale so I bought 2 small fillets. I picked up an orange pepper to sweeten the curry and a couple of tomatoes I didn't need. First off get that whole grain rice cooking in half chicken stock half water with a dash of salt and a bit of oil. Dice an onion and get it browning for the curry. Take the bones out of the fillets and season them with Southwest Spice Rub.
I diced up 4 small tomatoes but 2 would have been plenty. I only used a quarter of the pepper. When the onions were golden I stirred in a tablespoon of curry powder and a pinch of cayenne. Cook it a moment then add a little chicken stock and the orange pepper. When that had sweated I added the tomatoes.
The frying pan was hot so I dropped in the fillets. I watch the texture of the fish change as it cooks and turn it when the middle of the thickest part is done. It doesn't take long for small snapper fillets. I plated the rice, then the fish and the curry over top. Steamed broccoli on the side. Simple, tasty and different.
