Sauteed Red Snapper With Ginger-Lime Butter

"This is one of many Cooking Light recipes that I've found to be easy, healthy and very tasty. You can easily substitute halibut or tilapia for the snapper. I served it with Simple Thai Coconut Rice and it was delicious!"

  1. Made this last night for dinner with Recipe#103775#103775 (using Recipe#16399#16399) and left over Recipe#383990#383990. It was delicious and so simple!!!! I seasoned panko crumbs for my DH's fish and dipped the fish in egg then crumbs (he likes the crunch) and cooked mine as the instructions stated. Then topped both with the butter. They both turned out wonderful. Will be making this again. Thank you.
     
  2. Super Tastey!! We had this for dinner tonight. It was simple to make and very good. I used Tilapia becuase I couldn't find any red snapper that looked good. Thanks for posting I made for PAC 2009!!

Although hardly your traditional southern girl, I come from a huge southern family and have been cooking since I was eight years old. Cooking is more then a hobby, I genuinely get so much pleasure from cooking and providing the people I love with great food. I have to attest, that it truly IS the way to a man's heart! In my opinion, there is nothing more admirable to hold then the truest essence of a homemaker, or as the term is coined today "household engineer"! I am a licensed real estate agent working full-time from home and a soccer mom to my 9 year old son. I am a busy bee but somehow find time to indulge in some of my many passions: dancing, photography, sewing and interior design. Finding that perfect balance is what I strive to do everyday and so far so good. Happy Cooking<img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg">
