Mangrove Snapper Almondine, Italian baked tomatoes, and Roasted Zucchini and Squash with Mushrooms and Onions

Simple dish, but OH SO GOOD! Trick is to zest the lemon then simmer the peels in a little olive oil in the pan prior to cooking. The Lemon oils infuse into the olive oil and knock the flavor out the park!

Looks great. I really like the idea of infusing the lemon zest into the oil before frying the fish.

Ooh, I would be a happy diner at your table.
I have lemon infused oil in the bottle for a short cut.
No shrooms for the other half. Job put me 2-4 weeks late on the the garden. Summer squash (yellow and green) close to being weeds

Thanks Gary, it definitely kicks up the flavor!

Thanks jcam222! It's a fairly simple fish dish to make. Any firm white flesh fish can be substituted.

Thanks Fueling Around, I didn't get any pics. but made Bruschetta and crustinis for an appetizer. I had some tomatoes with blemishes I had to do something with quick. With all the rain I'm getting cracks on the fruit, and with the heat, they don't last long on the vine. A friend got the squash and zucchini at the local farmers market.

Love snapper & used to eat it a lot when we lived on the coast, but since moving inland, not so much.
Yours looks fantastic!

SmokinAl Where are you living now? I wouold think you should be able to find fresh snapper fillets just about anywhere in Florida.

Not as fresh as on the coast & the cost is outrageous!
One thing we do get here is fresh catfish & crappie!
Caught the same day!
