Tips:

  • To ensure the snapper fillets cook evenly, make sure they are of uniform thickness. If necessary, use a sharp knife to trim the fillets to an even thickness.
  • If you don't have a broiler pan, you can use a regular baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  • Be careful not to overcook the snapper fillets. They should be cooked through but still flaky. Depending on the thickness of the fillets, this will take about 8-10 minutes.
  • The cilantro sauce is a great way to add a bright, fresh flavor to the snapper. If you don't have cilantro on hand, you can substitute parsley or basil.
  • Serve the snapper with your favorite sides. Roasted vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes are all good options.

Conclusion:

Broiled snapper with cilantro sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The snapper is cooked to perfection in the broiler and the cilantro sauce adds a bright, fresh flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
