Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 shallots, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup vodka
½ cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon lime juice
¼ cup fish sauce
2 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes
1 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon grated orange zest
¾ cup whipping cream
1 (8 ounce) package linguine pasta
4 (6 ounce) red snapper fillets
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
¼ teaspoon grated orange zest

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the shallot and garlic, and cook for 30 seconds. Pour in the vodka, and simmer for 1 minute. Add the lemon juice, lime juice, fish sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, fennel seeds, basil, thyme, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon orange zest, and cream. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low, and continue to simmer until the sauce has reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the linguine, and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes; drain.
  • Meanwhile, season the snapper fillets with salt and pepper, then dredge in the flour. Shake off the excess, and set aside. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the snapper fillets on both sides in the hot oil until nicely browned, and no longer transparent in the center, about 4 minutes per side.
  • To serve, toss the drained linguine with half of the sauce, and divide onto 4 plates. Place a snapper fillet onto each plate, and ladle on the remaining sauce. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon orange zest to garnish.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for my taste. I would have preferred a simpler recipe with fewer ingredients.

This dish was very underwhelming. The snapper was dry and the sauce was tasteless. I would not make this again.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster! The snapper was overcooked and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

Overall, I thought this dish was pretty good. The snapper was cooked well and the sauce was flavorful. However, I think it could have been better if the sauce was a bit more creamy.

I found the sauce to be a bit too heavy. I would have liked it better if it was a little lighter and more delicate.

This dish was a little too tangy for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more mild citrus flavor.
