INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 (4 ounce) fillets red snapper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

DIRECTIONS

  1. Rinse snapper under cold water, and pat dry. In a shallow bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, rice vinegar, mustard, honey, green onions, and ginger.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Dip snapper fillets in marinade to coat both sides, and place in skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Pour remaining marinade into skillet. Reduce heat, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
