Snapper and Garlic Potatoes Recipe

Name: Snapper and Garlic Potatoes
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 (175 g) red snapper fillets; 750 g potatoes (baby potatoes); 1 lemon (zest and juice of); ⅓ cup olive oil; 1 tablespoon garlic (minced); 1 cup spring onion (scallions finely sliced); salt (to taste); pepper (to taste); ½ cup basil leaves (roughly chopped or torn); 1 lemon (cut into 4 wedges)

Servings: persons

1
Cut 4 fillets in half and set aside.
2
Simmer baby potatoes in salted water until they are tender and cut into 3cm sections.
3
Meanwhile make the dressing (while potatoes are cooking) by combining the lemon, oil, garlic, spring onions and seasoning (I would recommend you put all ingredients into a jar, seal and shake well).
4
Add the dressing to the cooked potatoes while they are still hot so they soak up the dressing.
5
Heat a little extra olive oil in a heavy frypan/skillet and cook the fish pieces until they are golden on both sides and just cooked through.
6
When ready to serve, fold the basil through the potatoes.
7
Serve the 2 pieces of fish and a quarter of the potatoes with some rocket leaves or baby green leaves if desired.
