Red Snapper (Chinese-French Fusion) image

I wanted to create a red snapper dish that uses strong Asian flavors made subtle using simple French techniques. This dish truly exemplifies the perfect fusion of East and West. I am proud of this dish and you will be as well! Serve with steamed jasmine rice.
