Red Snapper Mexican Style
Ingredients:
4 red snapper fillets
2 tablespoons lime juice
Organic extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh chili pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and mashed
Pinch of cinnamon
Sea salt
Directions:
Rub fillets with lime juice; let stand, covered, in refrigerator for several hours. Using a heavy skillet, saute the fillets in a little olive oil briefly, on both sides. Transfer to an oiled Pyrex baking dish. Add more olive oil to the skillet. Saute onion until soft. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for about 30 minutes or more until most of the liquid is absorbed. Season to taste with sea salt. Strew the sauce over fish and bake at 350 degrees until tender, about 25 minutes. Serves 4.
