Lime Ginger Red Snapper

Lime Ginger Red Snapper is a recipe that you will wonder where it has been all of your life. I tend to serve the Red Snapper n a bed of hot fluffy rice for a lovely simple recipe that is always a hit. However, I have been trying it with lentils such as Chana Dal and it works so well. This dish only takes 20 minutes to cook and will serve 4 people easily. I have used the fillets for convenience. All good fishmongers will fillet your fish for you. The ginger and lime juice gives the fish a superb flavour that compliments each other.
