AWESOME!! *But* Used TILAPIA Instead
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My local grocery store did not have snapper fresh only frozen so I purchased Tilapia fillets in place of that. This dish was... very light and very good! My kids loved it as well. I wrapped 8 fillets in foil in baked in the oven instead of grilling. Did not use the coriander ( did not have any on hand). Did not use green olives either (forgot to pick them up...LOL). Added green onions to the salsa mix. Everything is remained the same from the recipe. Absolutely Delicious. So with my added ingredients and non-existing ingredients.. I think it turned out very well. :) Will make it again.Read more

Great Salsa!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We fixed the fish recipe once, it was good; but it's the salsa that we love. We serve with baked cod using our favorite... seasoning. Even if you don't like green olives you HAVE to try this! I don't like green olives either but love this salsa! Yummers!Read more

Although I cook other types of fish regularly, I have never made snapper before. The recipe was easy and very good. I will... definitely add this to my menu rotation.Read more

resturant quality but easy prep
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I am always looking for fish recipes. I don't care for fish that tastes "fishy", this recipe allows the flavor in the fish... and the seasonings to mingle without being too spicy. My 4 year old as well as my husband throughly enjoyed this. My husband even said that it was a dish he would have expected from a high quality resturant. I also enjoy the fact that the preparation was so easy and fast.Read more

Great salsa
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

We all just loved the salsa. It really made the dish. If it were not for the salsa I probably would have rated the fish dish... with only 3 stars.Read more
