Sunday Supper: Baked Snapper

Happy Sunday, everyone!

It's been a busy few days, and I haven't stamped anything since Wednesday (gasp!), but I wanted to be sure to post a Sunday Supper recipe. My mom just shared this with me today -- it's from a local charity cookbook, but she and Dad made some adjustments to it and really liked the result. So, here it is -- thanks, Mom! :)

Baked Snapper with Tomatoes

6 snapper fillets
4 sprigs of fresh thyme
3 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
1/2 c. coarsely chopped green olives (Mom and Dad used a some capers here instead)
1/4 tsp. dried hot red pepper flakes
1/4 c. extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 c. finely chopped red onion
1 Tbs. fresh lime juice

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Oil lightly a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the fillets in one layer. In a bowl, stir together the oil, thyme, tomatoes, olives (or capers), red pepper flakes, garlic, onion, and lime juice. In the oiled baking dish, arrange the fillets, skin side down; season with salt, and spoon the tomato mixture over them. Bake the fish uncovered in the middle of the oven 15 to 20 minutes, or until it just flakes.


Thanks for stopping by today! Tomorrow I'll have the Who's That Girl Challenge for you, and then I'll have an MFTeaser or two before the release on Wednesday!

Now, I need to get downstairs for some much-needed stamping time! :)

Have a great day -- spend some family time around the supper table!
